This paper aims to investigate the heat transfer in porous channels.

Abstract

Purpose

This paper aims to investigate the heat transfer in porous channels.

Design/methodology/approach

Finite element method is used to simulate the heat transfer in porous channels.

Findings

The number and width of channels play a key role in determining the heat transfer of the porous channel. The heat transfer is higher around the channel legs. Smaller base height is better to get higher heat transfer capability.

Originality/value

This study represents the original work to investigate heat transfer in a porous domain having multiple channels.
