Abstract

A theoretical study of mixed convection heat transfer was carried out in an infinite length of vertical channel with both open ends. One of the vertical plates was prescribed with constant heat flux. The effect of g-jitter was also taken into consideration. The Fourier method was utilized to solve the resulting governing equations. The behavior of the fluid temperature and velocity of the flow were studied and presented graphically in this paper. The graphical results were later on analyzed and discussed. The behavior of steady state flow was also investigated. Results confirmed that as wall temperature increased, the fluid temperature increased. The velocity increased due to increments in mixed convection and oscillation parameter, on the other hand, it decreased as a frequency of g-jitter increased.
