Abstrakt: The numerical simulation of free convection flow within a square-shaped enclosure for various orientations of elliptic blockage (EB) is performed in the present study. The bottom wall of the cavity remains uniformly heated, where the left and right (side) walls as well as the boundary wall of the elliptic blockage are insulated and the top wall remains at a cool temperature. As Pr remains constant, the effects of different values of Ra have a great influence on overall fluid flow and temperature gradient for three different locations: bottom elliptic blockage (BEB), center elliptic blockage (CEB) and top elliptic blockage (TEB), as a mass flow circulation has been identified, and a state of equilibrium has been established within the fluid flow simulations along with the isotherm contours. The outcomes of the numerical analysis are presented with the streamlines, isotherms, and variations of the average Nusselt number. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
