In this article, we study the linear and nonlinear thermal instability in a horizontal porous medium saturated by a nanofluid.
For this, the momentum equation with Brinkman model has been used. Also, it incorporates the effect of Brownian motion along
with thermophoresis. The linear stability is based on normal mode technique, and for nonlinear analysis, the truncated Fourier
series involving only two terms has been used. The expression of Rayleigh number for linear theory has been derived, and the
effects of various parameters on Rayleigh number have been presented graphically. Weak nonlinear theory is used to find the
concentration and the thermal Nusselt numbers. The behavior of the concentration and thermal Nusselt numbers is investigated
and depicted graphically, by solving the finite amplitude equations using a numerical method. 相似文献

Comments are made about the model employed by Chen and Vafai for forced convection in a porous medium channel, with a surface tension effect at the moving interface between two fluids, when one fluid is displaced by the other. A simple situation is analysed, and the circumstances under which surface tension effects are important in this case are clarified. 相似文献

Took into consideration the coupling effect of thermo, hydraulics and mechanics, a set of thermo–hydro-mechanical coupled wave equations for fluid–saturated soil are developed. In these wave equations, the $P_{3}$ -wave in solid phase and $P_{4}$ -wave in fluid phase are coupled into $T$ -wave in fluid–saturated soil by the assumption that the temperature of the solid phase is equal to the temperature of liquid phase at the same position. The dispersion equations for the thermo-elastic wave, which can be degraded to the equations for elastic wave in fluid–saturated soil, are derived from the above equations by introducing four potential functions. Then, these equations are solved numerically. The characteristics of wave phase velocity, attenuation and the effect of thermal expansion, initial temperature and porosity, etc., on phase velocities of $P_{1}$ -, $P_{2}$ -, and $T$ -wave are discussed. As a reference, the characteristics of the propagation of elastic waves in fluid–saturated soil are also studied. The computation results show that (1) the phase velocity of $P_{1}$ -wave obtained by the theory of thermoporoelascity (THM) is faster than that by the theory of poroelasticity (HM); (2) the attenuation of $P_{1}$ -wave obtained by either the theory of THM or HM are consistent; (3) the dissemination characteristics of $P_{2}$ -wave are almost consistent; (4) the phase velocity of $T$ -wave is the slowest among the three compressional waves; and (5) The attenuation versus frequency characteristic of $T$ -wave is similar to that of $P_{2}$ -wave. 相似文献

By using nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (NMRI) we have been able to analyse dispersion at the microscopic scale during steady-state flow through water-saturated glass beads. The flow rate through the porous medium was chosen high enough in order to neglect the influence of molecular diffusion on dispersion. Velocity statistics were measured, by NMRI, within slices of increasing thickness perpendicular to the direction of flow. It took more than two bead diameters before a representative elementary volume (REV) for the mean velocity was reached. This was in a region in the middle of the column that was not influenced by the boundary conditions. There the velocity variance decreased exponentially as a function of the slice thickness, due we consider to the formation of an interconnecting streamline network. The exponential decrease in the velocity variance reflects the transition from a local pattern of stochastic–convective flow to a convective–dispersion regime at the scale of the REV. We found that the point-like preferential influx and efflux boundary condition increased velocity variances and thus enhanced longitudinal hydrodynamic dispersion. Using the transverse correlation length of longitudinal velocity variance, we derived a mean transverse dispersivity that agreed well with Saffmans (1959) model. So we have been able to provide for the first time a direct observation verification of a part of Saffmans (1959) conjectures. By NMRI we observed this value to be independent of the observation scale of the slice thickness. 相似文献

The onset of convection in a horizontal layer of a porous medium saturated with a viscoelastic nanofluid was studied in this
article. The modified Darcy model was applied to simulate the momentum equation in porous media. An Oldroyd-B type constitutive
equation was used to describe the rheological behavior of viscoelastic nanofluids. The model used for the viscoelastic nanofluid
incorporates the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis. The onset criterion for stationary and oscillatory convection
was analytically derived. The effects of the concentration Rayleigh number, Prandtl number, Lewis number, capacity ratio,
relaxation, and retardation parameters on the stability of the system were investigated. Oscillatory instability is possible
in both bottom- and top-heavy nanoparticle distributions. Results indicated that there is competition among the processes
of thermophoresis, Brownian diffusion, and viscoelasticity that causes the convection to set in through oscillatory rather
than stationary modes. Regimes of stationary and oscillatory convection for various parameters were derived and are discussed
in detail. 相似文献

The dependences of the critical Rayleigh number for the non-oscillatory and oscillatory modes of instability on the thermophoresis

A theoretical investigation is made to study the influence of magnetic field on the onset of convection induced by centrifugal
acceleration in a magnetic fluid filled porous medium. The layer is assumed to exhibit anisotropy in mechanical as well as
thermal sense. Numerical solutions are obtained using the Galerkin method for the eigenvalue problem arising from the linear
stability theory. It is found that the magnetic field has a destabilizing effect and can be suitably adjusted depending on
the anisotropy parameters to enhance convection. The effect of anisotropies of magnetic fluid filled porous media is shown
to be qualitatively different from that of ordinary fluid filled porous media. This phenomenon may be helpful to increase
the efficiency of suitable heat transfer devices. 相似文献

The effect of time-periodic temperature modulation at the onset of convection in a Boussinesq porous medium saturated by a nanofluid is studied analytically. The model used for the nanofluid incorporates the effects of Brownian motion. Three types of boundary temperature modulations are considered namely, symmetric, asymmetric, and only the lower wall temperature is modulated while the upper wall is held at constant temperature. The perturbation method is applied for computing the critical Rayleigh and wave numbers for small amplitude temperature modulation. The shift in the critical Rayleigh number is calculated as a function of frequency of modulation, concentration Rayleigh number, porosity, Lewis number, and thermal capacity ratio. It has been shown that it is possible to advance or delay the onset of convection by time-periodic modulation of the wall temperature. The nanofluid is found to have more stabilizing effect when compared to regular fluid. Low frequency is destabilizing, while high frequency is always stabilizing for symmetric modulation. Asymmetric modulation and only lower wall temperature modulation is stabilizing for all frequencies when concentration Rayleigh number is greater than one. 相似文献

Linear stability analysis was applied to the onset of convection due to internal heating in a porous medium saturated by a nanofluid. A model in which the effects of thermophoresis and Brownian motion are taken into account is employed. We utilized more realistic boundary conditions than in the previous work on this subject; now the nanofluid particle fraction is allowed to adapt to the temperature profile induced by the internal heating, subject to the requirement that there is zero perturbation flux across a boundary. The results show that the presence of the nanofluid particles leads to increased instability of the system. We identified two combinations of dimensionless parameters that are the major controllers of convection instability in the layer. 相似文献

The onset of convection in a horizontal layer of a porous medium saturated by a nanofluid is studied analytically. The model
used for the nanofluid incorporates the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis. For the porous medium, the Brinkman
model is employed. Three cases of free–free, rigid–rigid, and rigid–free boundaries are considered. The analysis reveals that
for a typical nanofluid (with large Lewis number), the prime effect of the nanofluids is via a buoyancy effect coupled with
the conservation of nanoparticles, whereas the contribution of nanoparticles to the thermal energy equation is a second-order
effect. It is found that the critical thermal Rayleigh number can be reduced or increased by a substantial amount, depending
on whether the basic nanoparticle distribution is top-heavy or bottom-heavy, by the presence of the nanoparticles. Oscillatory
instability is possible in the case of a bottom-heavy nanoparticle distribution. 相似文献

Stability Analysis of Bioconvection of Gyrotactic Motile Microorganisms in a Fluid Saturated Porous Medium 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Despite a large number of publications on bioconvection in suspensions of motile microorganisms, bioconvection in a fluid saturated porous medium is a relatively new area of research. This paper is motivated by experimental research by Kessler (1986) who established that a porous medium prevents the development of convection instability in algal suspensions. This suggests that there may exist a critical value of the permeability of a porous medium. If the permeability is smaller than critical, the system is stable and bioconvection does not develop. If the permeability is larger than critical, bioconvection may develop. This paper presents a model of bioconvection of gyrotactic motile microorganisms in a fluid saturated porous medium. The focus of this research is the determination of the critical value of permeability of a porous medium by a linear stability analysis. A simple but elegant analytical solution for the critical Darcy number is obtained. 相似文献

An experimental study on the transport and deposition of suspended particles (SP) in a saturated porous medium (calibrated sand) was undertaken. The influence of the size distribution of the SP under different flow rates is explored. To achieve this objective, three populations with different particles size distributions were selected. The median diameter $d_{50}$ of these populations was 3.5, 9.5, and $18.3~\upmu \hbox {m}$ . To study the effect of polydispersivity, a fourth population noted “Mixture” ( $d_{50} = 17.4\; \upmu \hbox {m}$ ) obtained by mixing in equal proportion (volume) the populations 3.5 and $18.3\;\upmu \hbox {m}$ was also used. The SP transfer was compared to the dissolved tracer (DT) one. Short pulse was the technique used to perform the SP and the DT injection in a column filled with the porous medium. The breakthrough curves were competently described with the analytical solution of a convection–dispersion equation with first-order deposition kinetics. The results showed that the transport of the SP was less rapid than the transport of the DT whatever the flow velocity and the size distribution of the injected SP. The mean diameter of the recovered particles increases with flow rate. The longitudinal dispersion increases, respectively, with the increasing of the flow rates and the SP size distribution. The SP were more dispersive in the porous medium than the DT. The results further showed that the deposition kinetics depends strongly on the size of the particle transported and their distribution. 相似文献

The onset of convection in a horizontal layer of a porous medium saturated by a nanofluid is analytically studied. The model
used for the nanofluid incorporates the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis. For the porous medium, the Darcy model
is employed. The effect of local thermal non-equilibrium among the particle, fluid, and solid-matrix phases is investigated
using a three-temperature model. The analysis reveals that in some circumstances the effect of LTNE can be significant, but
for a typical dilute nanofluid (with large Lewis number and with small particle-to-fluid heat capacity ratio) the effect is
small. 相似文献

An analytical study is made of the convective flow field produced when a warm cylinder maintained at a fixed temperature above
freezing is buried in saturated frozen porous medium. The flow field is shown to have a double cell pattern due to the density
inversion of water at ~ 4°C, with downward convection of heat dominating at cylinder temperatures of below ~ 10°C and upward
heat convection dominating at temperatures greater than this. The analysis uses a perturbation technique to determine the
first-order convective correction to the flow and temperature fields around the cylinder for a quasi-static case. It demonstrates
that the porous medium permeability and the cylinder temperature are the dominant factors in determining the point at which
convection heat transfer becomes significant, with convection expected to be insignificant for Darcy permeabilies lower than
10−5 m/s. The analysis also gives an indication of the rates of thawing occurring in different directions without resorting to
numerical methods. The practical implications of a thawing pattern significantly different to that predicted by conduction
theory only are discussed briefly with respect to the problem of differential thaw settlement of arctic pipelines. 相似文献
