Hi

I would like to find the data on laminar free convection in 2d rectangular and the data on lid-driven cavity flow. Who could help me

thanks

For the liddriven cavity flow here's a good reference:

@ARTICLE(ghia1982, AUTHOR = " U. Ghia, K. N. Ghia, C.T. Shin ", TITLE = " High-Re solutions for incompressible flow using the Navier-Stokes Equations ans a Multigrid Methods", PAGES = " 387--411", JOURNAL = JCP, YEAR = 1982, VOLUME = 48)

@string{JCP = "Journal of Computational Physics"}

For laminar free convection:

@ARTICLE(dev1983a, AUTHOR = " G. De Vahl Davis", TITLE = " Natural convection of air in a square cavity : a comparaison exercise", PAGES = " 227--248", JOURNAL = IJNMF, YEAR = 1983, VOLUME = 3)

@ARTICLE(dev1983b, AUTHOR = " G. De Vahl Davis", TITLE = " Natural convection of air in a square cavity : a benchmark solution", PAGES = " 249--264", JOURNAL = IJNMF, YEAR = 1983, VOLUME = 3)

@string{IJNMF = "International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids"}

These articles might seem old, but they are still widely used for validation.
