The paper deals with optimization of construction parameters of a floor convector with natural convection. Intensification of heat transfer from the floor convector with an objective to achieve the highest possible thermal performance of the floor convector was performed by CFD method and criterion equations at boundary conditions, like ambient temperature 20ºC and the temperature of the heating medium 75/65°C in thermostatic chamber.

Keywords: floor convector with natural convection, rib, spacing
