The concept of boundary layer flow, introduced in 1904 by Prandtl, is a popular field in Fluid Mechanics for engineers, physicists and mathematicians. In the classical Blasius boundary layer flow the transverse (normal) velocity reaches a…
We investigate the influence of the thermal properties of the boundaries in turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard convection on analytical upper bounds on convective heat transport. We model imperfectly conducting bounding plates in two ways: using…
Thermal convection in an inclined layer between two parallel walls kept at different fixed temperatures is studied for fixed Prandtl number Pr=1.07. Depending on the angle of inclination and the imposed temperature difference, the flow…
Convection on geophysical and astrophysical scales is subject to rapid rotation and strong heating from within the domain. In studying the long-time behaviour of the solutions for such a system, energy identities fail to capture the effects…
Direct numerical simulations are performed of turbulent forced convection in a half channel flow with wall oscillating either as a spanwise plane oscillation or to generate a streamwise travelling wave. The friction Reynolds number is fixed…
We investigate the structures of the near-plate velocity and temperature profiles at different horizontal positions along the conducting bottom (and top) plate of a Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection cell, using two-dimensional (2D) numerical…
We perform direct numerical simulations of rotating Rayleigh--B\'enard convection of fluids with low ($Pr=0.1$) and high ($Pr=5$) Prandtl numbers in a horizontally periodic layer with no-slip top and bottom boundaries. At both Prandtl…
Convection-diffusion of heat transfer is one of the important phenomena in fluid flow and industrial problems. The involved parameters, boundary conditions, and material properties are greatly affecting the same. As such, the uncertainness…
The above paper concerns the boundary layer flow of a visco-elastic fluid along a stretching sheet immersed in a porous medium. The plate temperature is different from that of the ambient medium and the fluid viscosity is a function of…
Direct Numerical Simulation have been carried out for a two dimensional flow in a Lid driven cavity at Reynolds number 5000 and Prandtl number 7 with water as the working fluid. Both the side walls of the enclosure are insulated(i.e.…
The basic stationary buoyant flow in a vertical annular porous passage induced by a boundary temperature difference is investigated. The vertical cylindrical boundaries are considered both isothermal and permeable to external fluid…
In this paper we investigate the asymptotic validity of boundary layer theory. For a flow induced by a periodic row of point-vortices, we compare Prandtl's solution to Navier-Stokes solutions at different $Re$ numbers. We show how Prandtl's…
In this paper we aim to construct a very weak solution to the steady two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations which is affected by an external force induced by a point vortex on the unit disk. Such a solution is also the form of…
A comprehensive review of current analytical models, experimental techniques, and influencing factors is carried out to highlight the current challenges in this area. The study of fluid-solid boundary conditions has been ongoing for more…
In turbulent wall sheared thermal convection, there are three different flow regimes, depending on the relative relevance of thermal forcing and wall shear. In this paper we report the results of direct numerical simulations of such sheared…
The present study numerically explores the mixed convection phenomena in a differentially heated ventilated square cavity with active flow modulation via a rotating plate. Forced convection flow in the cavity is attained by maintaining an…
Viscous flow past a finite plate which is impulsively started in direction normal to itself is studied numerically using a high order mixed finite difference and semi-Lagrangian scheme. The goal is to resolve details of the vorticity…
Adding moving boundaries to convective fluids is known to result in nontrivial and surprising dynamics, leading to spectacular geoformations ranging from the kilometer-scale karst terrains to the planetary-scale plate tectonics. On one…
The heat transfer behavior of convection-driven dynamos in a rotating plane layer between two parallel plates, heated from below and cooled from the top, is investigated. At a fixed rotation rate (Ekman Number, $E=10^{-6}$) and fluid…
The boundary layer structure of the velocity and temperature fields in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard flows in closed cylindrical cells of unit aspect ratio is revisited from a transitional and turbulent viscous boundary layer perspective. When…
