‎in this paper‎, ‎we have investigated the chaotic behavior of thermal convection in couple stress liquid saturated porous layer subject to gravity‎, ‎heated from below and cooled from above‎, ‎based on theory of dynamical system‎. ‎a low dimensional lorenz‎- ‎like model is obtained by using galerkin-truncation approximation‎. ‎we found that there is proportional relation between scaled couple ...

Thermal radiation from finite-conductivity boundaries can strongly affect the stability of horizontally unbounded, plane fluid layers heated from below. The role of thermal radiation in plane layer instabilities is studied under the assumption that the fluid medium is transparent, as a model of infrared transfer through gas layers. The solution procedure modifies a previous formulation of the c...

Thermal convection in a fluid layer confined between two horizontal rigid boundaries has been studied with the help of the Floquet theory. The temperature distribution consists of a steady part and an oscillatory time-dependent part. Disturbances are assumed to be infinitesimal. Numerical results for the critical Rayleigh numbers and wave numbers are obtained. It is found that the disturbances ...

The problem of scattering of ultrasound by particles in the long wavelength limit has a well-established solution in terms of Rayleigh expansions of the scattered fields. However, this solution is ill-conditioned numerically, and recent work has attempted to identify an alternative method. The scattered fields have been expressed as a perturbation expansion in the parameter Ka (the wavenumber m...

Numerical data for the heat transfer as a function of the Prandtl (Pr) and Rossby (Ro) numbers in turbulent rotating Rayleigh–Bénard convection are presented for Rayleigh number Ra = 108. When Ro is fixed, the heat transfer enhancement with respect to the non-rotating value shows a maximum as a function of Pr. This maximum is due to the reduced effect of Ekman pumping when Pr becomes too small ...

We present a numerical study of convection in horizontal layer comprising fluid-saturated porous bed overlain by an unconfined fluid layer. Convection is driven vertical, destabilising temperature difference applied across the whole system, as canonical Rayleigh-B\'enard problem. Numerical simulations are carried out using single-domain formulation two-layer problem based on Darcy-Brinkman equa...
