AB - In this piece, the impact of an obstacle's upstream edge inclination in a  rectangular channel is investigated. The main purpose of this study is to  give a better understanding of this associated phenomenon by reflecting  more accurately the different cooling techniques and to get as close as  possible to real conditions of use. This study is based on the laws of  conservation of mass, momentum, and energy, the equations are given in the  case of the 2-D flow of an incompressible Newtonian fluid, depending on the  variables primitives given below. During the study, we used the FLUENT  computer code, as well as its GAMBIT mesh generator several times, which  allowed us to become more familiar with numerical simulation. The purpose of  our numerical research is to clarify physical phenomena that are described  by theory without using more expensive experimentation.
