The upper and lower walls on either side of the heat source are adiabatic while the other walls are subjected to a constant cold temperature. The hydrodynamic and thermal phenomena are described by the equations of Navier-Stockes and energy. The models Brinkman and Wasp are used to describe the thermo-physical properties of the nanofluid (water- ).The finite element method; based on the Galerkin principle; is used to solve the system of partial differential equations. We consider the effect of the solid volume fraction for different values ??of the Rayleigh number on the results obtained, in the form of isotherms and local, modified Nusselt numbers.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Advanced Research in Fluid Mechanics and Thermal Sciences}, author={Ghouizi, Jamal and Nabou, Mohamed and Elmir, Mohammed and Douha, Mohamed and Berramdane, Mehdi}, year={2020}, month={Oct.}, pages={1–16} }
