Cubical-cavity natural-convection benchmark experiments: an extension.

Summary

As an extension to previously published work, this article defines a new "diamond" orientation for the cubical-cavity benchmark problem in natural convection, and presents new measurements as well as a previously-treated orientation. The authors measured the average Nusselt number for an air-filled cubical cavity with two opposing isothermal faces and the remaining four sides having a linear temperature rise from the cold-face temperature to the hot-face temperature. Thus the results are considered suitable for the testing of computational codes.
