Nonlinear Convection in a Partitioned Porous Layer
Convection in a partitioned porous layer is considered where the thin partition causes a mechanical isolation of the two identical sublayers from one another, but heat may neveretheless conduct freely. An unsteady solver that employs the multigrid method is employed to determine steady-state strongly nonlinear for values of the Darcy–Rayleigh number up to eight times its critical value. The pre...
متن کاملHeat-flux scaling in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection with an imposed longitudinal wind.
We present a numerical study of Rayleigh-Bénard convection disturbed by a longitudinal wind. Our results show that under the action of the wind, the vertical heat flux through the cell initially decreases, due to the mechanism of plume sweeping, and then increases again when turbulent forced convection dominates over the buoyancy. As a result, the Nusselt number is a nonmonotonic function of th...
متن کاملThermal convection in a rotating layer of a magnetic fluid
Thermal convection in magnetic fluids can be driven by buoyancy or by magnetic forces (due to the thermomagnetic effect). Depending on the direction of the applied temperature gradient, buoyancy effects can be stabilizing (heating from above) or destabilizing (heating from below), whereas the magnetic forces always play a destabilizing role for magnetic fields perpendicular to the interface. We...
متن کاملFully nonlinear oscillatory convection in a rotating layer
Two-dimensional overstable convection in a rotating layer is studied for large Taylor numbers. In this regime, the leading order nonlinearity arises from the distortion of the horizontally averaged temperature profile. Fully nonlinear solutions in the form of traveling and standing waves are obtained via an asymptotic expansion in the Taylor number. The formulation leads to a nonlinear eigenval...
متن کاملThermal convection in a nonlinear non-Newtonian magnetic fluid
We report theoretical and numerical results on thermal convection of a magnetic fluid in a viscoelastic carrier liquid. The viscoelastic properties are described by a general nonlinear viscoelastic model that contains as special cases the standard phenomenological constitutive equations for the stress tensor. In order to explore numerically the system we perform a truncated Galerkin expansion o...
