    Abstract: An experimental investigation is performed in the present study to identify how can the porous medium behave inside a closed curvy porous cavity heated from below and compare the obtained results with the same numerical simulation model. The numerical model is simulated by ANSYS-CFX R15.0 under Darcy-Forchheimer model with neglecting the viscous di... Show More
