Thermal 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 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...
متن کاملEffect of Modulation on Thermal Convection Instability
The linear stability problem for a fluid in a classic Benard configuration is considered. The applied temperature gradient is the sum of a steady component and a time-dependent periodic component. Only infinitesimal disturbances are considered. The time-dependent perturbation is expressed in Fourier series. The shift in critical Rayleigh number is calculated and the modulating effect of the osc...
متن کاملOn numerical realizability of thermal convection
Astounded at the regularity of convective structures observed in simulations of mesoscale flow past realistic topography, we take a deeper look into numerics of a classical problem of flow over a heated plate [1]. We find that solutions are sensitive to viscosity, which is either incorporated a priori or effectively realized in numerical models. In particular, anisotropic viscosity can lead to ...
متن کاملMagnetic-field effect on thermal convection of a nematic liquid crystal at large Rayleigh numbers
We report on near-turbulent thermal convection of a nematic liquid crystal heated from below in a cylindrical cell with an aspect ratio (diameter/height) equal to 0.50 for Rayleigh numbers 2 × 107 . Ra . 3 × 108 and a Prandtl number of about 355. The Nusselt number Nu as a function of Ra did not differ significantly from that of an isotropic fluid. In a vertical magnetic field H , we found Nu(H...
