Govender, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : pp. [112601-1/5] Note générale : Physique Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Gravity  modulation  Porous  media  Natural  convection  Rayleigh  number  Froude  number Index. décimale : 536 Chaleur. Thermodynamique Résumé : We consider vibration effects on the classical Rayleigh–Be'nard problem and the classical Vadasz (1994, “Stability of Free Convection in a Narrow Porous Layer Subject to Rotation,” Int. Commun. Heat Mass Transfer, 21, pp. 881–890) problem, which includes rotation of a vertical porous layer about the z-axis. In particular, we focus on the influence of the Vadasz number on vibration for small to moderate and large Vadasz numbers. For small to moderate Vadasz numbers, we develop an analogy between the Vadasz problem (Vadasz, 1994, “Stability of Free Convection in a Narrow Porous Layer Subject to Rotation,” Int. Commun. Heat Mass Transfer, 21, pp. 881–890) placed far away from the axis of rotation and classical Rayleigh–Be'nard problem, both of which include the effects of vibration. It is shown here that the stability criteria are identical to the Rayleigh–Be'nard problem with vibration when g*=omega*2X0*. The analysis for the large Vadasz number scaling indicates that a frozen time approximation is appropriate where the effect of vibration is modeled as small variations in the Rayleigh number definition.
