Mixed convective heat and solutal transport is important in engineering applications such as nuclear waste disposal, crystal growth and oceanography. Mixed convective in a lid-driven cavity and through channels with backward-facing step is studied by solving the equations of conservation of mass, momentum, energy and solutal concentration numerically. The governing equations are solved by using dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM) with constant elements in terms of stream function, vorticity, temperature and concentration. Vorticity, energy and concentration equations are transformed to the form of modified Helmholtz equations by utilizing forward difference with relaxation parameters for the time derivatives, and also approximating Laplacian terms at two consecutive time levels. The DRBEM application is carried out with the fundamental solution of modified Helmholtz equation, resulting in linear algebraic systems for the time dependent unknowns. Inhomogeneities in modified Helmholtz equations are approximated with the thin plated radial basis functions. Computations are carried out for several values of Richardson number, buoyancy ratio and Reynolds number. When the temperature and solutal concentration boundary conditions are changed, the thermal and solutal buoyancy forces can oppose or aid each other. The effects of these parameters on the flow behavior and heat transfer are shown in terms of graphics.

DRBEM solution of natural convection flow of nanofluids with a heat source
Gumgum, S.; Tezer, Münevver (Elsevier BV, 2010-08-01)
This paper presents the dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM) solution of the unsteady natural convective flow of nanofluids in enclosures with a heat source. The implicit Euler scheme is used for time integration. All the convective terms are evaluated in terms of DRBEM coordinate matrix. The vorticity boundary conditions are obtained from the Taylor series expansion of stream function equation. The results report that the average Nusselt number increases with the increase in both volume fractio...
DRBEM solution of mixed convection flow of nanofluids in enclosures with moving walls
Gumgum, S.; Tezer, Münevver (Elsevier BV, 2014-03-15)
This paper presents the results of a numerical study on unsteady mixed convection flow of nanofluids in lid-driven enclosures filled with aluminum oxide and copper-water based nanofluids. The governing equations are solved by the Dual Reciprocity Boundary Element Method (DRBEM), and the time derivatives are discretized using the implicit central difference scheme. All the convective terms and the vorticity boundary conditions are evaluated in terms of the DRBEM coordinate matrix. Linear boundary elements an...
DRBEM solution of the Cauchy MHD duct flow with a slipping perturbed boundary
Aydin, Cemre; Tezer, Münevver (Elsevier BV, 2018-08-01)
In this study, the MHD flow direct and Cauchy problems are solved in a rectangular duct with a perturbed, curved, and slip upper boundary. The aim is to recompute the slipping velocity and the slip length by using the asymptotic analysis with respect to the perturbation parameter e and solving MHD flow equations for the first order and the corrector solutions in the rectangular duct. Hence, without discretizing the curved boundary, we are able to obtain the solution of MHD flow in the duct with curved pertu...
DRBEM Solution of MHD flow in a rectangular duct with time-varied external magnetic field
Ebren Kaya, Elif; Tezer, Münevver (Elsevier BV, 2020-08-01)
This paper investigates the flow behavior of a viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting fluid in a long channel subjected to a time-varied oblique magnetic field B-0(t) = B(0)f(t). The time-dependent MHD equations are solved by using the dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM). The transient level velocity and induced magnetic field profiles are presented for moderate Hartmann number values, several direction of applied magnetic field and for several functions f(t) as polynomial, exponen...

Meral, Guelnihal; Tezer, Münevver (Elsevier BV, 2010-06-01)
The nonlinear wave equation is solved numerically in an exterior region For the discretization of the space derivatives dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM) is applied using the fundamental solution of Laplace equation. The time derivative and the nonlinearity are treated as the nonhomogenity. The boundary integrals coming from the far boundary are eliminated using rational and exponential interpolation functions which have decay properties far away from the region of Interest. The resulting sys...
