Summary:

In this study, natural convection in quadrantal cavities heated and cooled on adjacent walls is studied experimentally and numerically.

In the experimental study, detailed flow visualization studies are carried out by using holographic interferometry and particle tracing methods. Numerical solutions are obtained using Fluent 6.3.26 software.

Key Words: Natural Convection in Enclosures, Holographic Interferometry,

Particle Tracing, Heat Transfer
