Effect of L-shaped heat source and magnetic field on heat transfer and irreversibilities in nanofluid-filled oblique complex enclosure

Abstract In this paper, the natural convection heat transfer of water/alumina nanofluid is investigated in a closed square cavity. An oblique magnetic field is applied on the cavity of angle $$\gamma$$ γ . There is also radiation heat transfer in the cavity. The cavity includes a high-temperature so...
