Natural convection plays a vital role in energy related applications. A review of natural convection studies within non-square enclosures is presented. Mathematical models for fluid flow and heat transfer are elucidated for fluid and porous media. Results on thermal and flow characteristics within various complex geometries are discussed. Enhancement of heat transfer characteristics are highlighted on various applications.
