In this paper, we have used the QUICK scheme of the finite volume method to investigate the problem of steady 2-D free convective incompressible flow with heat and mass transfer in an inclined rectangular domain at different Rayleigh…
Convection of an internally heated fluid, confined between top and bottom plates of equal temperature, is studied by direct numerical simulation in two and three dimensions. The unstably stratified upper region drives convection that…
Two-dimensional direct numerical simulations are conducted for convection sustained by uniform internal heating in a horizontal fluid layer. Top and bottom boundary temperatures are fixed and equal. Prandtl numbers range from 0.01 to 100,…
Horizontal Convection (HC) at large Rayleigh and Prandtl numbers, is studied experimentally in a regime up to seven orders of magnitude larger in terms of Rayleigh numbers than previously achieved. To reach Rayleigh up to $10^{17}$, the…
This article discusses computational techniques for simulating natural convection in three-dimensional domains using finite element methods with tetrahedral elements. These techniques form a new numerical procedure for this kind of…
Vertical convection is the fluid motion that is induced by the heating and cooling of two opposed vertical boundaries of a rectangular cavity (see e.g. Wang et al. 2021). We consider the linear stability of the steady two-dimensional flow…
The behaviour of the turbulent Prandtl number ($Pr_t$) for buoyancy-affected flows near a vertical surface is investigated as an extension study of {Gibson \& Leslie, \emph{Int. Comm. Heat Mass Transfer}, Vol. 11, pp. 73-84 (1984)}. By…
This work investigates heat transport in rotating internally heated convection, for a horizontally periodic fluid between parallel plates under no-slip and isothermal boundary conditions. The main results are the proof of bounds on the mean…
The non-hydrostatic, quasigeostrophic approximation for rapidly rotating Rayleigh-B\'enard convection admits a class of exact `single mode' solutions. These solutions correspond to steady laminar convection with a separable structure…
Results from direct numerical simulations of vertical natural convection at Rayleigh numbers $1.0\times 10^5$-$1.0\times 10^9$ and Prandtl number $0.709$ support a generalised applicability of the Grossmann-Lohse (GL) theory, which was…
Horizontally extended turbulent convection, termed mesoscale convection in natural systems, remains a challenge to investigate in both experiments and simulations. This is particularly so for very low molecular Prandtl numbers as in stellar…
Inclined turbulent thermal convection by large Rayleigh numbers in extremely small-Prandtl-number fluids is studied based on results of both, measurements and high-resolution numerical simulations. The Prandtl number $Pr\approx0.0093$…
We study turbulent natural convection in enclosures with conjugate heat transfer. The simplest way to increase the heat transfer in this flow is through rough surfaces. In numerical simulations often the constant temperature is assigned at…
Rayleigh-B\'enard convection is numerically simulated in two- and three-dimensions using a recently developed two-component lattice Boltzmann equation (LBE) method. The density field of the second component, which evolves according to the…
New bounds are proven on the mean vertical convective heat transport, $\overline{\langle wT \rangle}$, for uniform internally heated (IH) convection in the limit of infinite Prandtl number. For fluid in a horizontally-periodic layer between…
Natural convection is of great importance in many engineering applications. This paper presents a smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method for natural convection. The conservation equations of mass, momentum and energy of fluid are…
Based on Jaffer's (2023) heat engine analysis of natural convection, this investigation mathematically derives a novel, comprehensive formula predicting the natural convective heat transfer from an inclined cylinder given its length,…
We report on a numerical study of turbulent convection driven by a combination of internal heat sources and sinks. Motivated by a recent experimental realisation (Lepot et al. 2018), we focus on the situation where the cooling is uniform,…
We study dynamical regimes of thermal convection with temperature-dependent viscosity driven by homogeneous internal heating. Two-dimensional steady-state convective solutions with the Frank-Kamenetskii viscosity are obtained by the Newton…
We present high-precision measurements of the Nusselt number N as a function of the Rayleigh number R for cylindrical samples of water (Prandtl number sigma = 4.38) with diameters D = 49.7, 24.8, and 9.2 cm, all with aspect ratio Gamma =…
