Abstract
In this paper, a preliminary two-dimensional study on conjugate natural convection in horizontal cylinder with a hot square body wrapped in a fluid, air, whose Prandt value is 0.7 will be developed. The laminar regime was adopted in the first simulation in order to simplify the problem. The governing equations were obtained at the literature and the simulations were developed numerically by the CFD ANSYS Fluent 18.2 package. The quality of the mesh was verified and the preliminary results are presented in this paper.
