TLDR
In this paper, a numerical study is carried out to analyze magnetohydrodynamic mixed convection flow and heat transfer in a hexagonal cavity, where the horizontal walls of the enclosure are kept at constant temperature T h while the inclined walls are uniformly heated of temperature T c, maintained a consistent circumstance of T h > T c. Finite element method based on Galerkin Weighted Residual technique has been employed to solve the governing equations describing the flow model.
