文摘
- •
Solar heating on concave or convex curved walls are done.
- •
Natural convection is studied for porous triangle with concave or convex hypotenuse.
- •
Studies are performed via entropy generation approach for various wall curvatures.
- •
The energy efficient case corresponds to the high heat transfer rate and low entropy generation rate.
- •
The energy efficient geometrical shape is chosen for various processing fluids.
