Received: 7 January 2018 Accepted: 17 July 2018 A numerical work is conducted for the free convection in a right triangular cavity filled with water-based nanofluids. The bottom wall is in a caterpillar wavy shape which is assumed as a hot wall whereas the rest walls of the enclosure are considered as a cold wall. Governing equations of the problem are discretized through the finite volume method. The present study is undertaken to appraise the effect of the constrained parameters i.e. various types of nanofluids (TiO2, CuO, and Al2O3), volume fractions of thenanoparticles and Rayleigh number (Ra=10-10). The higher augmentation in the rate of heat transfer is observed for the Al2O3-water-based nanofluid for each Rayleigh number.
