Abstract

The current work is dedicated to simulating the natural convection of Al2O3-Cu/Water hybrid nanofluid within the tilted quarter-elliptical chamber being affected by a magnetic field at different angles. The ellipse equation is considered for modeling the chamber in such a way that the ratio of height to length takes a constant value of 2. The temperature inside the chamber's curving wall has been kept low or cold, while the small smooth wall of the chamber is presumed adiabatic. The chamber’s larger wall is subjected to three different types of heating. All chamber walls have no velocity. The effect of the Hartmann number (Ha=0, 15, 30, 45), angle of exerted magnetic field (λ=0, 45◦, 90◦), chamber wall heating type (sinusoidal heating, linear heating, and constant temperature heating), chamber inclination angle (Г=-90◦, 0, +90◦), and the Rayleigh number (Ra=103, 104, 105) on the values related to the properties of heat and flow transport have undergone extensive study. The correctness of the results was guaranteed by comparing the findings of prior investigations with the current work.
