The effects of inner rotating plate on the heat transfer in a differentially heated inclined enclosure were investigated experimentally. The aspect ratio of the enclosure height/width was 1 throughout the experiments. An acrylic plate was installed with horizontal axis at the center of the square enclosure, and was rotated at various speeds. The inclination angle of the enclosure was varied from {minus}90{degree} to 90{degree}. Purified water was used for the working fluid. The flow pattern was sketched by a visualization experiment using aluminum powder. The heat transfer enhancement can be clearly seen for the inclined enclosure with hot wall of downward facing. The rotating plate used here is useful for the regulation of wide-ranging heat transfer rate.
