A numerical study has been executed to analyze the effects of Reynolds and Prandtl number on mixed convective flow and heat transfer characteristics inside a ventilated cavity in presence of a heat-generating solid circular obstacle placed at the center. The inlet opening is at the bottom of the lef...
