Transient Natural Convection in an Enclosure with Variable Thermal Expansion Coefficient and Nanofluid Properties
Transient natural convection is numerically investigated in an enclosure using variable thermal conductivity, viscosity, and the thermal expansion coefficient of Al2O3-water nanofluid. The study has been conducted for a wide range of Rayleigh numbers (103≤ Ra ≤ 106), concentrations of nanoparticles (0% ≤ ϕ ≤ 7%), the enclosure aspect ratio (AR =1), and temperature differences between the cold a...
متن کاملEffect of Variable Thermal Expansion Coefficient and Nanofluid Properties on Steady Natural Convection in an Enclosure
Steady state natural convection is numerically investigated in an enclosure using variable thermal conductivity, viscosity and thermal expansion coefficient of Al2O3–water nanofluid. This study has been conducted for a wide range of Rayleigh numbers (103≤ Ra ≤ 106), concentrations of nanoparticles (0% ≤ Φ ≤ 7%), enclosure aspect ratios (0.5 ≤ AR ≤ 2) and temperature differences between the cold...
متن کاملTurbulent Thermal Convection with an Obstructed Sidewall
We present an experimental study of turbulent convection in a cell with staggered fingers on its sidewall using water as the convecting fluid. Our measurements reveal that Nu , Ra20.27, and that the temperature probability density function (PDF) at the cell center is a double-peaked function which can be fitted by the superposition of two Gaussians. Moreover, it is found that the size of the lo...
متن کاملThermal convection with non-Newtonian plates
The coupling between plate motions and mantle convection is investigated using a fully dynamic numerical model consisting of a thin non-Newtonian layer which is dynamically coupled to a thick Newtonian viscous layer. The non-Newtonian layer has a simple power-law rheology characterized by power-law index n and stiffness constant pp. A systematic investigation of steady, single cell configuratio...
متن کاملFinite Amplitude Thermal Convection with Variable Gravity
Finite amplitude thermal convection is studied in a horizontal layer of infinite Prandtl number fluid with a variable gravity. For the present study, gravity is restricted to vary quadratically with respect to the vertical variable. A perturbation technique based on a small parameter, which is a measure of the ratio of the vertical to horizontal dimensions of the convective cells, is employed t...
