the effect of internal sphere on heat transfer characteristics of Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) thermal convection system is investigated experimentally. The effect of
porosity on heat transfer of RB system was studied by changing the diameter and distribution of the plexiglass sphere. Rayleigh number (
Ra
) changed from 5×10
7
to 2×10
9
and Prandtl number (
Pr
) was fixed at 5.5. The results show that under low
Ra
numbers
the filled spheres have almost no effect on the heat transfer of the RB system; under high
Ra
numbers
the heat transfer of the RB system is enhanced
with a maximum increase of 16%.
