In this study, heat transfer utilizing non-Newtonian fluids with a power-law model in a rectangular enclosure containing a hot obstacle was verified experimentally. The impact of aspect proportion (AR) on fluid flow characteristics and heat transfer, obstacle shapes, and various amounts of carboxymethylcellulose was explored with distilled water which in turn controls the index of powers-law (n). The findings show that the increases in the Number of Rayleigh, lead to the greater the Number of Nusselt, and the greater the non-Newtonian behavior, increased the heat transfer. There is also a noticeable impact when changing the shape of an obstacle on heat transfer as the cylindrical shape enhances heat transfer greater than the cuboid shape. As for aspect proportion, it also affects heat transfer inversely. |
