This chapter examines how boundary and geometry affect convection. It begins with a discussion of how one can implement “absorbing” top and bottom boundaries, which reduce the large-amplitude convectively driven flows within shallow boundary layers or the reflection of internal gravity waves off these boundaries in a stable stratification. It then considers how to replace the impermeable side boundary conditions with permeable periodic side boundary conditions to allow fluid flow through these boundaries and nonzero mean flow. It also introduces “two and a half dimensional” geometry within a cartesian box geometry and describes how a fully 3D cartesian box model could be constructed. Finally, it presents a model of convection in a fully 3D spherical-shell and shows how it can be easily reduced to a 2.5D spherical-shell model. The horizontal structures are represented in terms of spherical harmonic expansions.

Flow Through

The flow of a liquid through a tube deformed by a piezoelectric cell under a harmonic law is studied in this paper. Linear deformations are compared for the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions on the contact surface of the tube and piezoelectric element. The flow of fluid through a deformed channel for two flow regimes is investigated: in a tube with one closed end due to deformation of the tube; for a tube with two open ends due to deformation of the tube and the differential pressure applied to the channel. The flow rate of the liquid is calculated as a function of the frequency of the deformations, the pressure drop and the physical parameters of the liquid.

The present study is focused on the mixed convection fluid flow through a porous medium, when a different amount of nanoparticles is added in the base fluid. The nanofluid saturates the porous matrix and different situations of the flow between two walls are presented and discussed. Alternatively mathematical models are presented and discussed. A solution of a system which contains the momentum, Darcy and energy equations, together with the boundary conditions involved, is given. The behavior of different nanofluids, such thatAu-water, Ag-waterandFe-wateris graphically illustrated and compared with the previous results.The research target is to observe the substantial increase of the thermophysical fluid properties, when the porous medium issaturated by a nanofluid instead of a classical Newtonian fluid.

A theory is developed to describe high frequency three-dimensional thermoacoustic waves in a simplified geometry representing a typical premix combustor. The theory considers linear modes of frequency ω and circumferential mode number m i.e. proportional to eiωt+imθ. The radial and axial dependence is determined for a cylindrical combustor. Simple geometries are investigated systematically to analyze the effect of different inlet boundary conditions to the combustion chamber on the frequency of oscillation and on the susceptibility to instability, both near and away from the cut-off frequencies. The model includes a one-dimensional mean flow, radial mode coupling and idealized combustion processes, which are added in stages to build up an understanding of the complicated acoustics of the premix combustor geometry. It is demonstrated that the flow through the premix ducts provides a frequency-dependent boundary condition at combustor inlet and causes modal coupling. Generalized linear equations of conservation of mass, momentum and energy, together with boundary conditions, are solved to identify the eigenfrequencies, ω, of the total system. Then Real ω determines the frequency of the oscillation, while Imaginary ω indicates the growth rate of the disturbance. It is found that strong resonant peaks in the pressure waves exist close to the cut-off condition for acoustic waves and that the relationship between the unsteady rate of heat release and the flow significantly influences the instability of oscillation.
