Two-Dimensional Lattice Boltzmann for Reactive Rayleigh–Bénard and Bénard–Poiseuille Regimes

open access: yesEntropy, 2015
We perform a computer simulation of the reaction-diffusion and convection that takes place in Rayleigh–Bénard and Bénard–Poiseuille regimes. The lattice Boltzmann equation (LBE) is used along with the Boussinesq approximation to solve the non-linear ...

Numerical Study of Rotating Thermal Convection on a Hemisphere

open access: yesFluids, 2020
Numerical simulations of rotating two-dimensional turbulent thermal convection on a hemisphere are presented in this paper. Previous experiments on a half soap bubble located on a heated plate have been used for studying thermal convection as well as the

A Universal Way to Manipulate Droplet via Light‐Fueled Thermocapillary Convection

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 2, 5 January 2026.
A non‐contact light‐induced droplet manipulation strategy fueled by mid‐infrared (MIR) light irradiation is introduced. No additional additives and/or complex substrate are required. Here, thermocapillary convection, directly generated by temperature gradient at outer surface of droplet via localized surface heating, plays a key role to propel the ...

Impacts of high viscosity variation and internal heating on mantle convection in different aspect ratio cells

open access: yesHeliyon
This study examines the Rayleigh-Bénard convection model with free slip boundary conditions appropriate for the Earth's mantle in narrow and elongated cells with aspect ratios of 1:2 and 2:1, respectively.

Symmetry Breaking in Chemical Systems: Engineering Complexity Through Self‐Organization and Marangoni Flows

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, 27 January 2026.
We show that solutal Marangoni flows in thin films climbing the outer surfaces of hydrophilic obstacles break circular Belousov‐Zhabotinsky waves into striking flower‐like patterns. Evaporation‐driven surface‐tension gradients, coupled with gravity, trigger the instability; above a threshold, petal number scales linearly with obstacle diameter ...

Computational Fluid Dynamic Analysis of Fluid Motion and Volumetric Gas–Liquid Mass Transfer in Agitated Platelet Concentrate Storage

open access: yesBiotechnology Journal, Volume 21, Issue 1, January 2026.
Graphical Abstract and Lay Summary Platelets (PLTs) are small blood cells that play a vital role in stopping bleeding. After donation, they are stored in special bags, but their quality decreases over time. One reason for this decline is the mechanical stress they experience during collection, processing, and storage.

Transitions between turbulent states in rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Weakly rotating turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection was studied experimentally and numerically. With increasing rotation and large enough Rayleigh number a supercritical bifurcation from a turbulent state with nearly rotation-independent heat transport ...

A heat transfer correlation of Poiseuille-Rayleigh-Bénard convection in the thermal entrance region of a horizontal rectangular channel

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering
In order to understand heat transfer characteristics and obtain a heat transfer correlation of Poiseuille-Rayleigh-Bénard (P-R-B) convection in the thermal entrance region of a horizontal rectangular channel, we performed a series of the direct numerical
