Boundary Layer Associated with the Darcy-brinkman-boussinesq Model for Convection in Porous Media
We study the asymptotic behavior of the infinite Darcy-Prandtl number DarcyBrinkman-Boussinesq system for convection in porous media at small Brinkman-Darcy number. The existence of a boundary layer with thickness proportional to the square root of the BrinkmanDarcy number for the velocity field is established in both the L∞(H1) norm (2 and 3 d) and the L∞(L∞) norm (2d only). This improves an e...
متن کاملEffects of Radiation on Free Convection Flow in a Vertical Channel Embedded in Porous Media
The effects of radiative heat transfer on the fully developed free convection flow of a viscous incompressible fluid-saturated porous medium between two vertical walls in the presence of a uniform gravitational field have been studied. An exact solution of the governing equations has been obtained. Radiation is found to have significant effects on the velocity field and temperature distribution...
متن کاملNatural free convection in porous media: First field documentation in groundwater
[1] Natural free convection is a process of great importance in disciplines from hydrology to meteorology, oceanography, planetary sciences, and economic geology, and for applications in carbon sequestration and nuclear waste disposal. It has been studied for over a century – but almost exclusively in theoretical and laboratory settings. Despite its importance, conclusive primary evidence of fr...
متن کاملStructure of thermal boundary layers in turbulent RayleighBnard convection
We report high-resolution local-temperature measurements in the upper boundary layer of turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard (RB) convection with variable Rayleigh number Ra and aspect ratio Γ . The primary purpose of the work is to create a comprehensive data set of temperature profiles against which various phenomenological theories and numerical simulations can be tested. We performed two series of mea...
متن کاملSpectral analysis of boundary layers in Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
A combined experimental and numerical study of the boundary layer in a 4:1 aspect-ratio Rayleigh-Bénard cell over a four-decade range of Rayleigh numbers has been undertaken aimed at gaining a better insight into the character of the boundary layers. The experiments involved the simultaneous laser Doppler anemometry measurements of fluid velocity at two locations, i.e., in the boundary layer an...
