Solar Convection and Magneto-Convection

1996
We explore the general properties of convection in a solar surface layer. Our three-dimensional simulations use a tabulated equation of state that includes excitation and ionization of hydrogen and other abundant atoms, and the formation of H2 molecules. The radiative energy exchange is determined by solving the radiative transfer equation.

Convective Plumes in a Convective Field

Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 1970
Abstract The theory of isolated turbulent plumes given earlier is used to study a field of plumes. Each plume is immersed in the turbulent downdraft which comprises the return flow. The field of flow is specified by three parameters: the heat flux into the atmosphere at the surface, the depth of the convecting layer, and the intensity of turbulence at ...

Conduction and Convection [PDF]

open access: possible, 1991
As we discussed in Chapter 8, our knowledge of the pore-level fluid mechanics in two-phase flow through porous media is rather incomplete. In this chapter, we discuss thermal dispersion, i.e., convective heat transfer at the pore level, using the available knowledge about the subject. This knowledge is even more inconclusive.
