Advection-dominated accretion flows (ADAFs) are known to be convectively unstable for low values of the viscosity parameter alpha. Two-dimensional axisymmetric hydrodynamic simulations of such flows reveal a radial density profile which is…
The coupling between mass transfer and hydrodynamic phenomena in two-phase flow is not necessarily straightforward due to the different effects that can be encountered. The treatment of such coupling is complex and requires particular…
