The schematic below illustrates a tank formed from two zones, i.e. liquid and solid. The tank is heated from the left-side with a time-varying solar heat radiation g,ol =f(t)
(Wim), while the right-side is kept at a low temperature T. The top surface of the tank is subjected to the ambient conditions, i.e. (hair & Tair ), while its bottom is
thermally insulated. Conjugate heat transfer takes place between the two-physically different zones through the fluid-solid interface separating them, while fluid flow is
induced due to buoyancy effects where the buoyancy force is approximated according to Boussinesq formulation Fiuoyaney=P0 Bg(T-To). Explain the following:
1- The assumptions required to simulate the below problem.
2- The conservation equations governing the transport phenomena in each zone.
3- The boundary conditions closing the mathematical model.
