Abstract
The paper contains extended study on hydrodynamic forces. The uniformly heated rectangular shaped obstacle is installed in the path of ongoing cold fluid towards partially heated channel as a computational domain. The developed flow narrating mathematical system is solved by using LBB-stable finite element pair. The velocity and temperature distributions are offered in terms of contour plots. The hydrodynamic forces are evaluated by performing line integration around the outer surface of rectangular obstacle. It is noticed that the drag coefficient is inclination dependent subject to cold fluid flow in a partially heated channel.
