Stability for Rayleigh - Benard convective solutions of the Boltzmann equation
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider the Boltzmann equation for a gas in a horizontal slab, subject to a gravitational force. The boundary conditions are of diffusive type, specifying the wall temperatures, so that the top temperature is lower than the bottom one (Benard setup). We consider a 2-dimensional convective stationary solution, which is close for small Knudsen number to the convective stationary solution of the OberbeckBoussinesq equations, near above the bifurcation point, and prove its stability under 2-d small perturbations, for Rayleigh number above and close to the bifurcation point and for small Knudsen number.

We complete the result in [2] by showing the exponential decay of the perturbation of the laminar solution below the critical Rayleigh number and of the convective solution above the Rayleigh number, in the kinetic framework.

Various numerical boundary condition methods have been proposed to simulate various aspects of the no-slip wall condition using the Lattice Boltzmann Method. In this paper, a new boundary condition scheme is developed to model the no-slip wall condition in the presence of the body force term near the wall which is based on the Bennett extension. The error related to the new model is smaller tha...

During the last few years, a number of numerical boundary condition schemes have been used to study various aspects of the no-slip wall condition using the lattice Boltzmann method. In this paper, a modified boundary condition method is employed to simulate the no-slip wall condition in the presence of the body force term near the wall.

متن کاملThe Effects of Thermal Radiation
This work seeks to improve understanding of atmospheres in radiative-convective equilibrium. We use two types of idealized, dry radiative-convective models. The first type of model resembles Rayleigh-Benard convection, except that thermal radiative transfer is included. This type of system can be investigated in the laboratory. The second type of model is a more faithful representation of the e...
