description | The present article analyzes the effect of viscous dissipations on natural convection heat transfer. The power law model for non-Newtonian fluid with heat generation or absorption effect along a sinusoidal wavy surface with isothermal boundary condition is investigated. A simple coordinate transform is employed to map the wavy surface into a flat surface, and also, the fully implicit finite difference method is incorporated for the numerical solution. The findings of this study can help better understand the effect of parameters such as the Brinkman number, heat generation/absorption, wave amplitude magnitude, and generalized Prandtl number on convective heat transfer in dilatant and pseudoplastic non-Newtonian. Results show that as the Brinkman number increases, the amount of heat transfer decreases. This is physically justifiable considering that the fluid becomes warmer due to the viscous dissipation, decreasing its temperature difference with the constant temperature surface. Also, the effect of the power law viscosity index is surveyed. It is demonstrated that the magnitude of the local Nusselt number in the plane leading edge has the smallest quantity for pseudoplastic fluids compared to dilatant Newtonian fluids. Additionally, as the distance from the plane leading edge increases, the heat transfer declines. |
