Fig. 2.19 shows the physical geometry considered in this study
[13]. This geometry includes a concentric annulus between outer square and inner circular cylinders. The temperatures of inner and outer cylinders are considered
Th and
Tc, respectively (
Th >
Tc). In this figure
γ is measured counterclockwise from the upward vertical plane through the center of outer cylinders and aspect ratio definition is
λ =
L/2
r.
