    Abstract The present study is a numerical investigation of the irreversibility and heat transfer properties of a steady laminar mixed flow in a square cavity, filled with a saturated porous medium and heated by a discrete set of heat sources. The continuity, Navier-Stokes, energy and entropy generation equations have been solved by a finite volume method. Both heat transfer irreversibility and fluid friction irreversibility have been taken into account in the computations of entropy generation. Simulations have bee carried out for Reynolds number Re=20, 40, 80, 100, 200, Darcy number, Da=10-5-10-1, Prandtl number, Pr=0.015, 0.7, 10, 103, More >
