Rayleigh-Marangoni convection in a critical fluid: a tale of two crossovers.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that if we take a thin layer of fluid where surface tension effects are supposed to dominate and gradually bring the mean temperature of the layer closer and closer to the liquid vapor critical point, then first there is a crossover from Marangoni to Rayleigh-Benard convection and thence to a convection whose onset is determined by the Schwarzchild criterion.

Introductory analysis of the Bénard-Marangoni convection
We describe experiments on Bénard-Marangoni convection which permit an useful understanding on the main concepts involved in this phenomenon as, for example, Bénard cells, aspect ratio, Rayleigh and Marangoni numbers, crispation number and critical conditions. In spite of the complexity of the convection theory, this work carries out a simple and introductory analysis of it which has the additi...

متن کاملThermosolutal Convection of Micropolar Rotating Fluids Saturating a Porous Medium
Double-diffusive convection in a micropolar fluid layer heated and soluted from below in the presence of uniform rotation saturating a porous medium is theoretically investigated. An exact solution is obtained for a flat fluid layer contained between two free boundaries. To study the onset of convection, a linear stability analysis theory and normal mode analysis method have been used. For the ...
متن کاملInvestigation on Instability of Rayleigh-Benard Convection Using Lattice Boltzmann Method with a Modified Boundary Condition
In this study, the effects of Prandtl number on the primary and secondary instability of the Rayleigh-Benard convection problem has been investigated using the lattice Boltzmann method. Two different cases as Pr=5.8 and 0.7 representing the fluid in liquid and gas conditions are examined. A body forces scheme of the lattice Boltzmann method was presented. Two types of boundary conditions in the...
متن کاملBénard-Marangoni thermal oscillators: An experimental study
An experimental study of time-dependent Bénard-Marangoni convection in small aspect ratio containers and high Prandtl number fluids is presented. Two similar systems with the same aspect ratio, depth, and type of fluid are compared: one with adiabatic lateral boundaries and the other with open boundaries. In spite of the fact that very different plan forms and flows appear, both systems exhibit...
