| Abstract Convective heat transfer in a rectangular duct containing a heated rod forming a narrow gap with a plane wall has been simulated by solving the unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with a Reynolds stress model. Of particular interest is the role of quasi-periodic coherent structures in transporting fluid and heat across the gap region. It is shown that the local instantaneous velocity and temperature vary widely because of large-scale transport by coherent vortical structures forming in pairs on either side of the rod. |
