Impact of heat source on combined convection flow inside wavy-walled cavity filled with nanofluids via heatline concept

作者：

Highlights：

• Impact of heat source on mixed convection of nanofluids in wavy-walled cavity does reported via heatline concept.

• Finite element method is applied to solve the dimensionless governing equations with dimensionless BCs.

• Validations with the experimental/numerical data are accomplished regarding the validity of the existing code.

• Outcomes of length and location of the heat source, number of oscillations as well as Reynolds number are established.
