متن کاملCharacterization of Thermohaline Convection in Porous Medium: Brinkman Model
The present paper prescribes upper bounds for oscillatory motions of neutral or growing amplitude in thermohaline configurations of G. Veronis [1] and M. E. Stern [2] types in porous medium in such a way that it also results in sufficient conditions of stability for an initially top heavy as well as initially bottom heavy configuration.
متن کاملChaotic thermohaline convection in low-porosity hydrothermal systems
Fluids circulate through the Earth's crust perhaps down to depths as great as 5^15 km, based on oxygen isotope systematics of exhumed metamorphic terrains, geothermal fields, mesozonal batholithic rocks and analysis of obducted ophiolites. Hydrothermal flows are driven by both thermal and chemical buoyancy; the former in response to the geothermal gradient and the latter due to differences in s...
متن کاملAmplitude equations for a system with thermohaline convection
The multiple scale expansion method is used to derive amplitude equations for a system with thermohaline convection in the neighborhood of Hopf and Taylor bifurcation points and at the double zero point of the dispersion relation. A complex Ginzburg-Landau equation, a Newell-Whitehead-type equation, and an equation of the φ type, respectively, were obtained. Analytic expressions for the coeffic...
متن کاملIntermittent convection, mixed boundary conditions and the stability of the thermohaline circulation
Intermittent convection and its consequences on the stability of the thermohaline circulation are investigated with an oceanic global circulation model (OGCM) and simple box models. A two-box model shows that intermittency is a consequence of the nonlinearity of the equation of state and of the ratio of heat and freshwater fluxes at surface versus the fluxes at depth. Moreover, it only occurs i...
