	%X In this paper effects of inclination angle on natural
convection flow in an open cavity has been analyzed with Lattice
Boltzmann Method (LBM).The angle of inclination varied from θ= -
45° to 45° with 15° intervals. Study has been conducted for Rayleigh
numbers (Ra) 104 to 106. The comparisons show that the average
Nusselt number increases with growth of Rayleigh number and the
average Nusselt number increase as inclination angles increases at
Ra=104.At Ra=105 and Ra=106 the average Nusselt number enhance
as inclination angels varied from θ= -45° to θ= 0° and decrease as
inclination angels increase in θ= 0° to θ= 45°.
