In the current research, the natural convection of water-Al2O3 nanofluid has been simulated inside a cold semi-annulus chamber with a hot block at the its bottom. Also, an oblique magnetic field (MHD) has been implemented to improve and control the flow. The unstructured triangular mesh and FVM with...
