Abstract

We consider a general compressible viscous and heat conducting fluid confined between two parallel plates and heated from the bottom. The time evolution of the fluid is described by the Navier--Stokes--Fourier system considered in the regime of low Mach and Froude numbers suitably interrelated. Surprisingly and differently to the case of Neumann boundary conditions for the temperature, the asymptotic limit is identified as the Oberbeck--Boussinesq system supplemented with non--local boundary conditions for the temperature deviation.
