Summary

There are many applications of natural convection in porous media, such as heat storage using porous media, porous media insulation materials, underground diffusion of contaminants, petroleum extraction and electronic cooling. In this paper, a two dimensional natural convective flow in an inclined rectangular enclosure with porous material unsaturated with fluid is analysed numerically.
