Abstract:Thermo-electro-convective modes induced by a dielectrophoretic force in a differentially heated horizontal rectangular cavity have been investigated using direct numerical simulations in stable and unstable thermal stratifications. The variation of the electric tension applied to the plates of the cavity leads to multiple modes under microgravity as well as under both stable and unstable stratifications in terrestrial conditions. An effective electric Rayleigh number incorporating the effects of both the elect… Show more
