Investigation of heat transfer and entropy generated due to hybrid nanofluid mixed convection in lid-driven inclined semi-oval chamber; effect of non-uniform magnetic field
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the heat transfer and entropy generated due to mixed convection of hybrid nanofluid inside the lid-driven semi-oval chamber. The magnetic field is applied uniformly and non-uniformly. The simulation is performed by MRT-LBM and by writing computer code in Fortran language. Effect of Richardson number (0.1, 1 and 10), nanoparticles volume fraction (0-0.06), Hartmann number (0-60), inclination angle of the chamber (-90, 0 and +90 degrees) and type of magnetic field applied (uniform and non-uniform) on the flow formed in the chamber is evaluated. The results show that increasing the volume fraction of nanoparticles increases the flow strength, average Nusselt number, total volumetric entropy and Bejan number and most of the effect is observed for Richardson number 10 and inclination angle +90°. In all cases, increasing the Hartmann number decreases maximum values of streamlines and heat transfer, and this effect decreases with increasing Richardson number. By applying a magnetic field non-uniformly, it can change the flow strength by more than 80% and increase the heat transfer to 35%. Increasing the Hartmann number makes the effect of the non-uniform magnetic field more obvious, and the heat transfer has the largest share in the total volumetric entropy.
