Abstract: | The problem of double-diffusive convection in inclined triangular porous enclosures with sinusoidal variation of boundary
conditions in the presence of heat source or sink was discussed numerically. The dimensionless governing equations of the
problem were solved numerically by using finite difference method. The effects of governing parameters, namely, the dimensionless
time parameter, various values of the inclination angle, Darcy number, the heat generation/absorption parameter, the buoyancy
parameter and the amplitude wave length ratio on the streamlines, temperature and concentration contours as well as the velocity
component in the x-direction at the triangle mid-section, the average Nusselt and Sherwood numbers at the bottom wall of the
triangle for various values of aspect ratio were considered. The present results are validated by favorable comparisons with
previously published results. All the results of the problem were presented in graphical and tabular forms and discussed. |
