The problem of the onset of convective roll instabilities in a horizontal porous layer with isothermal boundaries at unequal
temperatures, well known as the Horton–Rogers–Lapwood problem, is revisited including the effect of pressure work and viscous
dissipation in the local energy balance. A linear stability analysis of rolls disturbances is performed. The analysis shows
that, while the contribution of viscous dissipation is ineffective, the contribution of the pressure work may be important.
The condition of marginal stability is investigated by adopting two solution procedures: method of weighted residuals and
explicit Runge–Kutta method. The pressure work term in the energy balance yields an increase of the value of the Darcy–Rayleigh
number at marginal stability. In other words, the effect of pressure work is a stabilizing one. Furthermore, while the critical
value of the Darcy– Rayleigh number may be considerably affected by the pressure work contribution, the critical value of
the wave number is affected only in rather extreme cases, i.e. for very high values of the Gebhart number. A nonlinear stability
analysis is also performed pointing out that the joint effects of viscous dissipation and pressure work result in a reduction
of the excess Nusselt number due to convection, when the Darcy–Rayleigh number is replaced by the superadiabatic Darcy–Rayleigh
number. 相似文献

The stability of a fluid-saturated horizontal rotating porous layer subjected to time-periodic temperature modulation is investigated
when the condition for the principle of exchange of stabilities is valid. The linear stability analysis is used to study the
effect of infinitesimal disturbances. A regular perturbation method based on small amplitude of applied temperature field
is used to compute the critical values of Darcy–Rayleigh number and wavenumber. The shift in critical Darcy–Rayleigh number
is calculated as a function of frequency of modulation, Taylor number, and Darcy–Prandtl number. It is established that the
convection can be advanced by the low frequency in-phase and lower-wall temperature modulation, where as delayed by the out-of-phase
modulation. The effect of Taylor number and Darcy–Prandtl number on the stability of the system is also discussed. We found
that by proper tuning of modulation frequency, Taylor number, and Darcy–Prandtl number it is possible to advance or delay
the onset of convection. 相似文献

The onset of convective rolls instability in a horizontal porous layer subject to a basic temperature gradient inclined with
respect to gravity is investigated. The basic velocity has a linear profile with a non-vanishing mass flow rate, i.e., it
is the superposition of a Hadley-type flow and a uniform flow. The influence of the viscous heating contribution on the critical
conditions for the onset of the instability is assessed. There are four governing parameters: a horizontal Rayleigh number
and a vertical Rayleigh number defining the intensity of the inclined temperature gradient, a Péclet number associated with
the basic horizontal flow rate, and a Gebhart number associated with the viscous dissipation effect. The critical wave number
and the critical vertical Rayleigh number are evaluated for assigned values of the horizontal Rayleigh number, of the Péclet
number, and of the Gebhart number. The linear stability analysis is performed with reference either to transverse or to longitudinal
roll disturbances. It is shown that generally the longitudinal rolls represent the preferred mode of instability. 相似文献

A buoyancy-induced stationary flow with viscous dissipation in a horizontal porous layer is investigated. The lower boundary
surface is impermeable and subject to a uniform heat flux. The upper open boundary has a prescribed, linearly varying, temperature
distribution. The buoyancy-induced basic velocity profile is parallel and non-uniform. The linear stability of this basic
solution is analysed numerically by solving the disturbance equations for oblique rolls arbitrarily oriented with respect
to the basic velocity field. The onset conditions of thermal instability are governed by the Rayleigh number associated with
the prescribed wall heat flux at the lower boundary, by the horizontal Rayleigh number associated with the imposed temperature
gradient on the upper open boundary, and by the Gebhart number associated with the effect of viscous dissipation. The critical
value of the Rayleigh number for the onset of the thermal instability is evaluated as a function of the horizontal Rayleigh
number and of the Gebhart number. It is shown that the longitudinal rolls, having axis parallel to the basic velocity, are
the most unstable in all the cases examined. Moreover, the imposed horizontal temperature gradient tends to stabilise the
basic flow, while the viscous dissipation turns out to have a destabilising effect. 相似文献

Combined forced and free convection flow in a fluid saturated inclined plane channel is investigated by taking into account
the effect of viscous dissipation. Steady parallel flow is considered assuming that the temperature gradient in the parallel
flow direction is constant, and the channel walls are subject to uniform symmetric heat fluxes. Two possible formulations
of the Darcy–Boussinesq scheme are considered, based on two different choices of the reference temperature for modelling buoyancy.
The first choice is a constant temperature, while the second is a streamwise changing temperature. It is shown that both approaches
substantially agree in the formulation of the balance equations for the range of values of the Darcy–Rayleigh number such
that viscous dissipation is important. The boundary value problem is solved analytically for any tilt angle, revealing that
it admits dual solutions for assigned values of the governing parameters. The rather important effect of viscous dissipation
in the special case of adiabatic channel walls is outlined.

A theoretical analysis of buoyancy-driven instability under transient basic fields is conducted in an initially quiescent,
fluid-saturated, horizontal porous layer. Darcy’s law is used to explain characteristics of fluid motion and the anisotropy
of permeability is considered. Under the Boussinesq approximation and the principle of exchange of stabilities, the stability
equations are derived by using the linear stability theory and the energy method. The linear stability equations are analyzed
numerically by using the frozen-time model and the linear amplification theory and the global stability limits are obtained
numerically from the energy method. For the various anisotropic ratios, the critical times are predicted as a function of
the Darcy–Rayleigh number and the critical Darcy–Rayleigh number is also obtained. The present predictions are compared each
another and with existing theoretical ones. 相似文献

The effects of viscous dissipation on unsteady free convection from an isothermal vertical flat plate in a fluid saturated
porous medium are examined numerically. The Darcy–Brinkman–Forchheimer model is employed to describe the flow field. A new
model of viscous dissipation is used for the Darcy–Brinkman–Forchheimer model of porous media. The simultaneous development
of the momentum and thermal boundary layers are obtained by using a finite difference method. Boundary layer and Boussinesq
approximation have been incorporated. Numerical calculations are carried out for various parameters entering into the problem.
Velocity and temperature profiles as well as local friction factor and local Nusselt number are shown graphically. It is found
that as time approaches infinity, the values of friction factor and heat transfer coefficient approach steady state. 相似文献

The effect of strong throughflow and strong heterogeneity on the onset of convection induced by a vertical density gradient
in a saturated porous medium governed by Darcy’s law is investigated. The general case, where there is heterogeneity in both
the vertical and horizontal directions, and where there is heterogeneity in permeability, thermal conductivity, and applied
temperature gradient, is considered. A computer package has been extended to deal with the case of vertical throughflow. 相似文献

The effect of thermal/gravity modulation on the onset of convection in a Maxwell fluid saturated porous layer is investigated
by a linear stability analysis. Modified Darcy–Maxwell model is used to describe the fluid motion. The regular perturbation
method based on the small amplitude of modulation is employed to compute the critical Rayleigh number and the corresponding
wavenumber. The stability of the system characterized by a correction Rayleigh number is calculated as a function of the viscoelastic
parameter, Darcy–Prandtl number, normalized porosity, and the frequency of modulation. It is found that the low frequency
symmetric thermal modulation is destabilizing while moderate and high frequency symmetric modulation is always stabilizing.
The asymmetric modulation and lower wall temperature modulations are, in general, stabilizing while the system becomes unstable
for large values of Darcy–Prandtl number and for small frequencies. It is shown that in general the gravity modulation produces
a stabilizing effect on the onset of convection for moderate and high frequency. The small frequency gravity modulation is
found to have destabilizing effect on the stability of the system. 相似文献

The present paper examines the effect of vertical harmonic vibration on the onset of convection in an infinite horizontal
layer of fluid saturating a porous medium. A constant temperature distribution is assigned on the rigid boundaries, so that
there exists a vertical temperature gradient. The mathematical model is described by equations of filtration convection in
the Darcy–Oberbeck–Boussinesq approximation. The linear stability analysis for the quasi-equilibrium solution is performed
using Floquet theory. Employment of the method of continued fractions allows derivation of the dispersion equation for the
Floquet exponent σ in an explicit form. The neutral curves of the Rayleigh number Ra versus horizontal wave number α for the
synchronous and subharmonic resonant modes are constructed for different values of frequency Ω and amplitude A of vibration. Asymptotic formulas for these curves are derived for large values of Ω using the method of averaging, and,
for small values of Ω, using the WKB method. It is shown that, at some finite frequencies of vibration, there exist regions
of parametric instability. Investigations carried out in the paper demonstrate that, depending on the governing parameters
of the problem, vertical vibration can significantly affect the stability of the system by increasing or decreasing its susceptibility
to convection.

The effect of strong throughflow and strong heterogeneity on the onset of convection induced by a vertical density gradient
in a saturated porous medium governed by Darcy’s law is investigated with the aid of a computer package. The general case,
where there is heterogeneity in both the vertical and horizontal directions, and where there is heterogeneity in permeability,
thermal conductivity, and applied temperature gradient, is considered. Previous work on the case of non-periodic global variation
is now extended to the case of either periodic variation or localized variation. 相似文献

The effect of vertical heterogeneity of permeability, on the onset of convection in a horizontal layer of a saturated porous medium, uniformly heated from below but with a non-uniform basic temperature gradient resulting from vertical throughflow, is studied analytically using linear stability theory. It is found that, to first order, a linear variation of the reciprocal of permeability with depth has no effect on the critical value of the Rayleigh number Ra c based on the harmonic mean of the permeability, but a quadratic variation increasing in the upwards direction leads to a reduction in Ra c. 相似文献

The linear stability of the double-diffusive convection in a horizontal porous layer is studied considering the upper boundary to be open. A horizontal temperature gradient is applied along the upper boundary. It is assumed that the viscous dissipation and Soret effect are significant in the medium. The governing parameters are horizontal Rayleigh number (\(Ra_\mathrm{H}\)), solutal Rayleigh number (\(Ra_\mathrm{S}\)), Lewis number (Le), Gebhart number (Ge) and Soret parameter (Sr). The Rayleigh number (Ra) corresponding to the applied heat flux at the bottom boundary is considered as the eigenvalue. The influence of the solutal gradient caused due to the thermal diffusion on the double-diffusive instability is investigated by varying the Soret parameter. A horizontal basic flow is induced by the applied horizontal temperature gradient. The stability of this basic flow is analyzed by calculating the critical Rayleigh number (\(Ra_\mathrm{cr}\)) using the Runge–Kutta scheme accompanied by the Shooting method. The longitudinal rolls are more unstable except for some special cases. The Soret parameter has a significant effect on the stability of the flow when the upper boundary is at constant pressure. The critical Rayleigh number is decreasing in the presence of viscous dissipation except for some positive values of the Soret parameter. How a change in Soret parameter is attributing to the convective rolls is presented. 相似文献

The effect of local thermal non-equilibrium (LTNE) on the onset of thermomagnetic convection in a ferromagnetic fluid-saturated
horizontal porous layer in the presence of a uniform vertical magnetic field is investigated. A modified Forchheimer-extended
Darcy equation is employed to describe the flow in the porous medium, and a two-field model is used for temperature representing
the solid and fluid phases separately. It is found that both the critical Darcy–Rayleigh number and the corresponding wave
number are modified by the LTNE effects. Asymptotic solutions for both small and large values of scaled interphase heat transfer
coefficient H
t are presented and compared with those computed numerically. An excellent agreement is obtained between the asymptotic and
the numerical results. Besides, the influence of magnetic parameters on the instability of the system is also discussed. The
available results in the literature are recovered as particular cases from the present study. 相似文献

Based on a modified Darcy–Brinkman–Maxwell model, a linear stability analysis of a Maxwell fluid in a horizontal porous layer
heated from below by a constant flux is carried out. The non-oscillatory instability and oscillatory instability with different
hydrodynamic boundaries such as rigid and free surfaces at the bottom are studied. Compared with the rigid surface cases,
onset of fluid motion due to non-oscillatory instability and oscillatory instability is found to occur both more easily for
the system with a free bottom surface. The critical Rayleigh number for onset of fluid motion due to non-oscillatory instability
is lower with a constant flux heating bottom than with an isothermal heating bottom, but the result due to oscillatory instability
is in contrast. The effects of the Darcy number, the relaxation time, and the Prandtl number on the critical Rayleigh number
are also discussed. 相似文献

The effects of hydrodynamic and thermal heterogeneity, for the case of variation in both the horizontal and vertical directions,
on the onset of convection in a horizontal layer of a saturated porous medium uniformly heated from below, with weak vertical
throughflow, are studied analytically for the case of weak heterogeneity. It is found that when the boundary conditions at
the upper and lower boundaries are symmetric, the throughflow magnitude and the permeability and conductivity gradients enter
the expression for the critical Rayleigh number at second order. The throughflow on its own is stabilizing but the combination
of throughflow and heterogeneity may be either stabilizing or destabilizing. 相似文献

The stability analysis of the quiescent state in a Maxwell fluid-saturated densely packed porous medium subject to vertical
concentration and temperature gradients is presented. A single phase model with local thermal equilibrium between the porous
matrix and the Maxwell fluid is assumed. The critical Darcy–Rayleigh numbers and the corresponding wave numbers for the onset
of stationary and oscillatory convection are determined. A Lorenz like system is obtained for weakly nonlinear stability analysis. 相似文献

The purpose of this article is to analyze, theoretically, the effect of modulation on rotating Brinkman–Lapwood convection,
i.e., buoyancy-driven convection in a sparse porous medium subjected to rotation. Darcy–Brinkman momentum equation with Coriolis
term has been used to describe the flow. The system is considered rotating about an axis with non-uniform rotation speed.
In particular, we assume that the rotation speed is varying sinusoidally with time. A linear stability analysis has been performed
to find the critical Rayleigh number in modulated case. The effect of modulated rotation speed is found to have a stabilizing
effect on the onset of convection for different values of modulation frequency and the other physical parameters involved. 相似文献

The effect of horizontal as well as vertical temperature gradients on the stability of natural convection in a thin horizontal
layer of viscous, incompressible fluid is studied on the basis of linear theory. The boundaries are taken to be rigid, perfectly
thermally conducting, having prescribed temperatures and the horizontal temperature gradient is assumed to be small. It is
found that for Prandtl number greater than 0.13, the critical Rayleigh number is always larger than that for the corresponding
Benard problem. The preferred mode of disturbance is stationary and will be a transverse roll (having axes normal to the basic
flow) or a longitudinal roll (having axes aligned in the direction of the basic flow) depending on whether the Prandtl number
is less or larger than 1.7. Finally, it is shown that the instability is of thermal origin. 相似文献
