Abstract
This paper describes the study of the behavior of two-dimensional and parallel horizontal flat plates subjected to laminar forced convection of nano fluid water/copper. The governing equations are solved numerically using the finite volume technique and the algorithm SIMPLE. After the simulations the temperature and velocity fields were obtained for the following variables: plate thickness and conductivities, spacing between boards and inlet velocities.
