Viscous heating and instability of the adiabatic buoyant flows in a horizontal channel
A. Barletta, M. Celli, D. A. S. Rees
The stability of buoyant flows occurring in the mixed convection regime for a viscous fluid in a horizontal plane-parallel channel with adiabatic walls is investigated. The basic f…
On the use and misuse of the Oberbeck-Boussinesq approximation
A. Barletta, M. Celli, D. A. S. Rees
The Oberbeck-Boussinesq approximation is the most widely employed theoretical scheme for the study of natural or mixed convection flows. However, the misunderstanding of this appro…
On the stability of parallel flow in a vertical porous layer with annular cross-section
A. Barletta, M. Celli, D. A. S. Rees
The linear stability of buoyant parallel flow in a vertical porous layer with an annular cross-section is investigated. The vertical cylindrical boundaries are kept at different un…
Buoyant flow and instability in a vertical cylindrical porous slab with permeable boundaries
A. Barletta, M. Celli, D. A. S. Rees
The basic stationary buoyant flow in a vertical annular porous passage induced by a boundary temperature difference is investigated. The vertical cylindrical boundaries are conside…
