Abstrakt: The present study deals with numerical investigation of mixed convection of Al2O3-water nanofluid with consideration of variable properties inside a rectangular inclined multi-vented cavity heated from one side. Effects of variations of volume fraction of nanoparticles and the positions of outlet port of the cavity on flow and temperature field and rate of heat transfer are studied. The obtained results show that the existence of nanoparticles in the base fluid leads to a significant heat transfer increase. Moreover, a better cooling inside the cavity was found by a displacement of the outlet port from the left to the right of wall. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
