A computational study has been made for a three dimensional double diffusive convection with molten Pb-Sn by using finite volume method. In this work, two vertical walls have different temperature and different concentration while remaining walls are adiabatic. Buoyancy ratio, which changes between N = -0.1 and -10, is the main governing parameter during work. Other parameters are taken as fixe...

We investigate the solutions of partial differential equations describing a two-layered fluid system. The lower layer contains a fastly diffusing, stabilizing substance T and a slowly diffusing, destabilizing substance S. The upper layer contains only the solvent. Double-diffusive convection yields cells in agreement with experiments performed with a tenside (S) and glycerine (T) dissolved in w...

There are two simple solutions to reaction-diffusion systems with limit-cycle reaction kinetics, producing oscillatory behaviour. The reaction parameter mu gives rise to a 'space-invariant' solution, and mu versus the ratio of the diffusion coefficients gives rise to a 'time-invariant' solution. We consider the case where both solution types may be possible. This leads to a refinement of the Tu...

An extensive program for the calculation of galactic cosmic-ray propagation has been developed. This is a continuation of the work described in [1]. The main motivation for developing this code [2] is the prediction of diffuse Galactic gamma rays for comparison with data from the cgro instruments egret, comptel, and osse. The basic spatial propagation mechanisms are (momentumdependent) diffusio...

Many biological phenomena are characterized by extensive fluid mechanical and chemical reactionary systems. As such, it is necessary to understand the manner in which these processes develop and the role that they play in a given system. Vascular blood flow is characterized by convective, diffusive, and reactive processes. Specifically, blood clot formation involves platelet convection within t...

We present a mathematical analysis of the asymptotic preserving scheme proposed in [M. Lemou and L. Mieussens, SIAM J. Sci. Comput., 31, pp. 334–368, 2008] for linear transport equations in kinetic and diffusive regimes. We prove that the scheme is uniformly stable and accurate with respect to the mean free path of the particles. This property is satisfied under an explicitly given CFL conditio...
