Boundary-layer analysis of the thermal bar [PDF]
The thermal bar, a descending plane plume of fluid at the temperature of maximum density (3.98° C in water), is analysed as a laminar free-convection boundary layer, following the example of Kuiken & Rotem (1971) for the plume above a line source of heat.

Influence of higher order effects on the vortex instability of thermal boundary layer flow in a wedge shaped domain [PDF]
We reconsider the onset of streamwise vortices in the thermal boundary layer flow induced by an inclined upward-facing heated semi-infinite surface placed within a Newtonian fluid.

The effects of displacement induced by thermal perturbations on the structure and stability of boundary-layer flows [PDF]
The free-interaction influence of a thermal expansión process in boundary-layer gas flow is analyzed using the formalism of triple-deck theory. The physical model considered is the forced convection of a gas flowing over a flat plate subject to a heated ...

Analysis of Model Results for the Turning of the Wind and Related Momentum Fluxes in the Stable Boundary Layer [PDF]
The turning of wind with height and the related cross-isobaric (ageostrophic) flow in the thermally stable stratified boundary layer is analysed from a variety of model results acquired in the first Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX ...

Thermal receptivity of free convective flow from a heated vertical surface: linear waves [PDF]
Numerical techniques are used to study the receptivity to small-amplitude thermal disturbances of the boundary layer flow of air which is induced by a heated vertical flat plate.

Frequency of boundary-layer-top fluctuations in convective and stable conditions using laser remote sensing [PDF]
The planetary boundary-layer (PBL) height is determined with high temporal and altitude resolution from lidar backscatter profiles. Then, the frequencies of daytime thermal updrafts and downdrafts and of nighttime gravity waves are obtained applying a ...

Thermal resistances of crystalline and amorphous few-layer oxide thin films
Thermal insulation at nanoscale is of crucial importance for non-volatile memory devices such as phase change memory and memristors. We perform non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations to study the effects of interface materials and structures on ...

What is the smallest physically acceptable scale for 1D turbulence schemes ?
In numerical weather prediction (NWP) models, at mesoscale, the subgrid convective boundary-layer turbulence is dominated by the uni-directional (1D) vertical thermal production.
