Experimental study of double-diffusive convection in a rotating annulus with lateral heating

Numerical simulation of double diffusive laminar mixed convection in a horizontal annulus with hot, solutal and rotating inner cylinder

“…They conducted a parametric study to present the qualitative features of flow patterns and isotherms. Lee et al [19,20] have investigated the effect of rotation in a double-diffusive convection for a stably stratified fluid within an annulus. They showed the effect of rotation on the development and merging of the multi-layered flow structure and various field variables.…”

Numerical simulation of double-diffusive mixed convection within a rotating horizontal annulus

“…In addition, several studies were reported on double-diffusive convection in a vertical annulus. Lee et al [12,13] have investigated, among others, the effect of rotation in a double-diffusive convection for a stably stratified fluid within an annulus. The effect of rotation on the development and merging of the multi-layered flow structure and various field variables were presented.…”

Effect of Buoyancy Ratio on Double-Diffusive Natural Convection in a Porous Rhombic Annulus

“…In addition to N u and Sh values, the tables also display the percent differences between the current values and the corresponding values obtained in a rhombic annulus. These values are computed as % Nu = 100 * N u circular − N u Rhombic N u circular % Sh = 100 * Sh circular − Sh Rhombic Sh circular (19) As shown in Table 6a, the % (N u) varies between -10.69% and 15.01%. Similarly, the % (Sh) values displayed in Table 6b indicate variations between -10.69% and 19.50%.…”

“…Shi and Lu [18] simulated numerically using a finiteelement method the time evolution of double-diffusive convection in a vertical cylinder to identify the effect of the buoyancy ratio on the evolution of the flow, temperature, and solute fields in the cavity. Lee et al [19] conducted an experimental investigation to study the double-diffusive convection phenomena of a stably stratified salt-water solution due to lateral heating in a stationary and rotating annulus. In the stationary annulus, four distinct flow regimes were observed.…”
