The paper is devoted to numerical analysis of transient natural convection of a non-Newtonian nanofluid in an enclosure under the influence of a local heater. The cooling system is modeled on the basis of heat pipes located on vertical walls, while the horizontal walls are considered to be thermally insulated. In this work, a nanofluid is a suspension of alumina nanoparticles and a mixture of water and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (1% MWCNT). The finite difference method has been used for calculations. Distributions of streamlines and isotherms as well as average Nusselt number have been studied for different values of governing parameters.
