Abstract EN

Two-dimensional steady-state Rayleigh-Bénard convection of thermodependent power-law fluids confined in a square cavity, heated from the bottom and cooled on the top with uniform heat fluxes, has been conducted numerically using a finite difference technique.

The effects of the governing parameters, which are the Pearson number (0≤m≤10), the flow behaviour index (0.6≤n≤1.4), and the Rayleigh number (0

The heatlines concept has been used to explain the heat transfer deterioration due to temperature-dependent viscosity effect that m expresses.
