Gyrotactic bioconvection at pycnoclines
Bioconvection is an important phenomenon in aquatic environments, affecting the spatial distribution of motile micro-organisms and enhancing mixing within the fluid. However, stratification arising from thermal or solutal gradients can play a pivotal role in suppressing the bioconvective flows, leading to the aggregation of micro-organisms and growth of their patchiness. We investigate the comb...
متن کاملEffect of Sinusoidally Heating on Mixed Convection in Square Cavity Filled with a Porous Medium
Unsteady mixed convection flows in a lid-driven square cavity filled with a fluid-saturated porous medium is investigated numerically. The two vertical walls of the enclosure are insulated while the bottom wall is cooled. The top wall is heated sinusoidally and moving at a constant speed. The governing equations are solved numerically by using finite volume method with SIMPLE algorithm. The res...
متن کاملNumerical Study of Natural Convection in a Square Cavity Filled with a Porous Medium Saturated with Nanofluid
Steady state natural convection of Al2O3-water nanofluid inside a square cavity filled with a porous medium is investigated numerically. The temperatures of the two side walls of the cavity are maintained at TH and TC, where TC has been considered as the reference condition. The top and the bottom horizontal walls have been considered to be insulated i.e., non-conducting and impermeable to mass...
متن کاملMixed convection study in a ventilated square cavity using nanofluids
This work indicates a numerical study on the laminar heat transfer mixed convection in a square cavity with two openings (an inlet and an outlet) on vertical walls through which nanofluid flows. Two flow directions are examined: i) ascending flow which enters the bottom opening and exits the upper opening; ii) descending flow which enters the upper opening and exits the bottom opening. The asce...
متن کاملNumerical Study of Entropy Generation in Mixed MHD Convection in a Square Lid-Driven Cavity Filled with Darcy-Brinkman-Forchheimer Porous Medium
This investigation deals with the numerical simulation of entropy generation at mixed convection flow in a lid-driven saturated porous cavity submitted to a magnetic field. The magnetic field is applied in the direction that is normal to the cavity cross section. The governing equations, written in the Darcy–Brinkman–Forchheimer formulation, are solved using a numerical code based on the Contro...
