The interaction of natural convection with thermal radiation of black surfaces in a cylindrical enclosure filled with air has been numerically investigated. The steady-state continuity, Navier-Stokes and energy equations were discretized using the control volume method and solved numerically via the SIMPLER algorithm. Effects of Rayleigh number (Ra), wall emissivity (εp) and height ratio parameter (X) are studied. The result shows that surface radiation significantly altered the temperature distribution and the flow patterns, especially at higher Rayleigh numbers. The total average Nusselt number has also been discussed for valuating heat transfer through the enclosure.
