The present paper investigates the numerical simulation of steady laminar incompressible natural convection and force convection heat transfer in an enclosed cavity and channel that is filled with a fluid-saturated porous medium. In this study, the governing equation for the flow in the cavity and channel filled with porous media is developed, and the appropriate formulation which includes both single phase flow and the flow in porous medium field is derived. SIMPLE algorithm is applied to solve this governing equation which QUICK scheme is utilized to descritize the convection term. To have a better solution especially near the boundary layer region, clustered grid is used. The code is validated through the comparison with valid references for two test cases.
