Effect of shape and sizes of a local heat source on convective heat transfer in a square cavity [PDF]
Numerical analysis of the effects of the local heat source shape on transient natural convection in a square enclosure has been carried out. The local heat source has rectangular, triangular and trapezoidal shape. The boundary value problem formulated in

Melt Production and Volatile Release From Thermochemical Mantle Plumes
Abstract Mantle plumes are thought to generate Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs), the largest outpourings of lava in the geologic record, which are associated with long‐lasting climatic warming events and mass extinctions. However, the controls on mantle degassing by plumes remain poorly constrained.

Oscillatory convection and limitations of the Boussinesq approximation [PDF]
We determine the asymptotic conditions under which the Boussinesq approximation is valid for oscillatory convection in a rapidly rotating fluid. In the astrophysically relevant parameter regime of small Prandtl number, we show that the Boussinesq prediction for the onset of convection is valid only under much more restrictive conditions than those that

Abstract Plume interaction with a forest canopy results in flow features distinct from those in grasslands. Here, we model the turbulence dynamics of a buoyant plume in a homogeneous plant canopy with a crosswind using Large‐Eddy Simulations. As the plume interacts with the crosswind, we observe increased vorticity at the windward and tilted hair‐pin ...

The Liquid Film Flow with Evaporation: Numerical Modelling
The flow of thin liquid layer on an inclined substrate is investigated numerically. The mathematical modelling is based on the Oberbeck-Boussinesq equations and the generalized conditions on the thermocapillary boundary simplified during the parametrical

A Test Function Method for Weakly Coupled Systems With Derivative‐Type Nonlinearity
ABSTRACT We consider a two by two system of inequalities which include fractional powers of the Laplace operator, coupled through a semilinear term of derivative type. We prove the nonexistence of global‐in‐time weak solutions for powers below the critical curve and possibly on the critical curve.

Free Convection and Irreversibility Analysis inside a Circular Porous Enclosure
We investigate the nature of heat transfer and entropy generation for natural convection in a two-dimensional circular section enclosure. The enclosure is assumed to fill with porous media.

Adaptive Numerical Modeling of Tsunami Wave Generation and Propagation with FreeFem++
A simplified nonlinear dispersive Boussinesq system of the Benjamin–Bona–Mahony (BBM)-type, initially derived by Mitsotakis (2009), is employed here in order to model the generation and propagation of surface water waves over variable bottom.

ABSTRACT Sørlige Nordsjø II (SNII) is a planned large‐scale offshore wind farm in the Southern Norwegian North Sea near the Danish border, with phased development targeting a total installed capacity of up to 3 GW. For projects of this scale, site assessments are typically performed using computationally efficient analytical models.

Explicit Solutions of a Gravity-Induced Film Flow along a Convectively Heated Vertical Wall
The gravity-driven film flow has been analyzed along a vertical wall subjected to a convective boundary condition. The Boussinesq approximation is applied to simplify the buoyancy term, and similarity transformations are used on the mathematical model of
