Abstract
This paper is the second in a series concerned with Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) of the flow over an array of surface-mounted cubical obstacles which has been experimentally investigated by Meinders et al. [1]. In the first paper [2], the results of the flow simulation without heat transfer have been compared to the experimental results, showing good agreement. The aim of the present paper is to report the results concerning surface temperature profiles, heat transfer coefficient profiles and turbulent heat transport characteristic when the core of one of the cubes in the matrix is heated. This is a prototype flow as it occurs in numerous applications such as cooling devices, heat exchangers, etc. and hence is of considerable industrial relevance.
