The Growth and Structure of Double - Diffusive Cells Adjacent to a Side - Wall in a Salt - Stratified Environment [PDF]
, 2004 August 15-21, 2004 Measurements are reported of the rate of horizontal extension of the cells in tanks of different lengths with a range of initial salinity gradients and cooling rates (which determine the vertical height of each cell).

One-dimensional transient finite difference model of an operational salinity gradient solar pond [PDF]
This paper describes the modeling approach used to simulate the transient behavior of a salinity gradient solar pond. A system of finite difference equations are used to generate the time dependent temperature and salinity profiles within the pond.

High Efficiency in Energy Generation from Salinity Gradients with Reverse Electrodialysis
ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering, 2013 Renewable energy can be captured from the mixing of salt and fresh water in reverse electrodialysis. This paper investigates the energy efficiency of this process for feed waters that pass a reverse electrodialysis cell once and waters that pass multiple cells or electrode segments. So far, the maximum theoretical energy efficiency was considered to be

The formation of shear and density layers in stably stratified trubulent flows: linear processes [PDF]
, 2002 The initial evolution of the momentum and buoyancy fluxes in a freely decaying, stably stratified homogeneous turbulent flow with r.m.s. velocity u′0 and integral lengthscale l0 is calculated using a weakly inhomogeneous and unsteady form of the rapid ...
