We analyse the process of convective mixing in two-dimensional, homogeneous and isotropic porous media with dispersion. We considered a Rayleigh-Taylor instability in which the presence of a solute produces density differences driving the…
We conducted a series of pore-scale numerical simulations on convective flow in porous media, with a fixed Schmidt number of 400 and a wide range of Rayleigh numbers. The porous media are modeled using regularly arranged square obstacles in…
We perform a numerical study of the heat transfer and flow structure of Rayleigh-B\'enard (RB) convection in (in most cases regular) porous media, which are comprised of circular, solid obstacles located on a square lattice. This study is…
Direct numerical simulations (DNS) indicate that at large values of the Rayleigh number ($Ra$) convection in porous media self-organizes into narrowly-spaced columnar flows, with more complex spatiotemporal features being confined to…
We present a numerical study of convection in a horizontal layer comprising a fluid-saturated porous bed overlain by an unconfined fluid layer. Convection is driven by a vertical, destabilising temperature difference applied across the…
Natural convection in porous media is a fundamental process for the long-term storage of CO2 in deep saline aquifers. Typically, details of mass transfer in porous media are inferred from the numerical solution of the volume-averaged…
We investigate horizontal dispersion of a passive scalar in a porous stratum with Rayleigh-Darcy convection initiated by a geothermal gradient. While increasing Rayleigh number ($Ra$) keeps enhancing convection, the horizontal dispersion…
Pushing two fluids with different density one against the other causes the development of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability at their interface, which further evolves in a complex mixing layer. In porous media, this process is influenced by…
We investigate the fully nonlinear model for convection in a Darcy porous material where the diffusion is of anomalous type as recently proposed by Barletta. The fully nonlinear model is analysed but we allow for variable gravity or…
We perform a two-dimensional numerical study on the thermal effect of porous media on global heat transport and flow structure in Rayleigh-B\'enard (RB) convection, focusing on the role of thermal conductivity $\lambda$ of porous media,…
We present a theory to describe the Nusselt number ($Nu$), corresponding to the heat or mass flux, as a function of the Rayleigh--Darcy number ($Ra$), the ratio of buoyant driving force over diffusive dissipation, in convective porous media…
We report pore-scale statistical properties of temperature and thermal energy dissipation rate in a two-dimensional porous Rayleigh-B\'enard (RB) cell. High-resolution direct numerical simulations were carried out for the fixed Rayleigh…
We study the fractionation of two components between a well-mixed gas and a saturated convecting porous layer. Motivated by geological carbon dioxide (CO$_2$) storage we assume that convection is driven only by the dissolved concentration…
Convective dissolution is the process by which CO$_2$ injected in deep geological formations dissolves into the aqueous phase, which allows storing it perennially by gravity. The process results from buoyancy-coupled Darcy flow and solute…
Based on mesoscale lattice Boltzmann numerical simulations, we characterize the Rayleigh-B\'enard (RB) convective dynamics of dispersions of liquid droplets in another liquid phase. Our numerical methodology allows us to modify the…
Convection is the predominant mechanism by which energy and angular momentum are transported in the outer portion of the Sun. The resulting overturning motions are also the primary energy source for the solar magnetic field. An accurate…
We report a numerical study of Rayleigh--B\'enard convection through random porous media using pore-scale modelling, focusing on the Lagrangian dynamics of fluid particles and heat transfer for varied porosities $\phi$. Due to the…
We present three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard convection in a closed rectangular box whose width $L_y$ and length $L_x$ are 0.8 and 2.4 times the height $H$, respectively. The Rayleigh number $Ra$…
We numerically investigate both single and multiple droplet dissolution with droplets consisting of lighter liquid dissolving in a denser host liquid. The significance of buoyancy is quantified by the Rayleigh number Ra which is the…
Penetrative turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard convection which depends on the density maximum of water near $4^\circ\rm{C}$ is studied using two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) direct numerical simulations (DNS). The working fluid is…
