This paper presents laminar fully developed free convection flow between two coaxial vertical cylinders partially filled with a porous matrix when the cylinders are kept at different temperatures. The Brinkman-extended Darcy model is used to simulate momentum transfer in the porous region. The two regions are coupled by equating the velocity and by considering shear stress jump condition at the interface. The effect of Darcy number on the velocity throughout porous domain and adjustable coefficient in the stress jump condition at the interface is shown graphically. It is observed that velocity is influenced by the shear stress jump condition at the interface.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
