Available potential energy in Rayleigh-Bénard convection

open access: yes, 2021
The mechanical energy budget for thermally equilibrated Rayleigh–Bénard convection is developed theoretically, with explicit consideration of the role of available potential energy, this being the form in which all the mechanical energy for the flow is ...

Three-dimensional numerical simulations on Poiseuille-Rayleigh-Bénard convection of air in a horizontal rectangular channel

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2023
In order to reveal the combined influences of Rayleigh (Ra) number, Reynolds (Re) number and spanwise aspect ratio (B) on the flow pattern evolution and stability, and heat transfer of Poiseuille-Rayleigh-Bénard (PRB) convection, we presented a set of ...

Effects of Controller and Nonuniform Temperature Profile on the Onset of Rayleigh-Bénard-Marangoni Electroconvection in a Micropolar Fluid

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2014
Linear stability analysis is performed to study the effects of nonuniform basic temperature gradients on the onset of Rayleigh-Bénard-Marangoni electroconvection in a dielectric Eringen’s micropolar fluid by using the Galerkin technique.

Numerical analysis of Poiseuille-Rayleigh-Bénard convection in supercritical carbon dioxide

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2022
The supercritical carbon dioxide (S–CO2) Brayton cycle is an important energy conversion technology for the fourth generation of nuclear energy. Since the printed circuit heat exchanger (PCHE) used in the S–CO2 Brayton cycle has narrow channels, Rayleigh-

Galerkin method for feedback controlled Rayleigh--Bénard convection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We employ a Galerkin approximation for the system of equations governing Rayleigh-Bénard convection. This approximation reduces the dimension of the problem by one, while it captures the nonlinear behavior even when only a few basis functions are used ...

Adapting a Fourier pseudospectral method to Dirichlet boundary conditions for Rayleigh-Bénard convection [PDF]

open access: yesPapers in Physics, 2015
We present the adaptation to non-free boundary conditions of a pseudospectral method based on the (complex) Fourier transform. The method is applied to the numerical integration of the Oberbeck-Boussinesq equations in a Rayleigh-Bénard cell with no-slip ...

Hexagonal Cell Formation in Darcy–Bénard Convection with Viscous Dissipation and Form Drag

open access: yesFluids, 2017
Recent interest in the effects of viscous dissipation on convective flows in porous media has centred almost exclusively on forced convection flows. In this paper, we investigate the manner in which it affects the onset and early stages of convection in ...

Horizontal Cellular Oscillations Caused by Time-Periodic Resonant Thermal Forcing in Weakly Nonlinear Darcy-Bénard Convection

open access: yesFluids, 2017
The onset of Rayleigh-Bénard convection in a horizontally unbounded saturated porous medium is considered. Particular attention is given to the stability of weakly nonlinear convection between two plane horizontal surfaces heated from below.

Study of heat and mass transport in Couple-Stress liquid under G-jitter effect

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2018
In the present paper, we deal with the effect of G-jitter (time periodic gravity modulation) on the stability of double diffusive convection in couple stress liquid by method of non-linear analysis. The infinitesimal disturbances are expanded in terms of
