Modified Double-Diffusive Convection in Viscoelastic Fluid
Abstract: Normal 0 false false false EN-IN X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Modified double-diffusive convection in viscoelastic fluid of the Veronis’ and Stern’s type configurations is considered in the present paper. Semi-circle theorems that prescribe upper limits for the complex growth rate of oscillatory motions of neutral or growing amplitude are derived. The limits so derived naturally culminate in sufficient conditions which precludes the non-existence of such motions. The results obtained herein significantly …

Effect of Throughflow on the Onset of Electro-Thermo Convection in a Micropolar Fluid with Maxwell-Cattaneo Law
Abstract: AbstractThe effect of throughflow on the onset of Electro-thermo convection in a micropolar fluid with Maxwell-Cattaneo law is studied using the linear theory. The eigenvalue is obtained for free-free, rigid-rigid and rigid-free velocity boundary combinations with isothermal and adiabatic on the spin-vanishing boundaries using galerkin technique. The influence of Peclet number, Electric Rayleigh number and various micropolar fluid parameters on the onset of convection has been analyzed. It is found …

Influence of Horizontal Crossflow on the Rayleigh-Taylor Instability: A Numerical Approach
Abstract: Rayleigh-Taylor Instability (RTI) is a typical occurrence in natural events, engineering, and industrial applications. When the lighter fluid (bottom medium) is forcing the heavier fluid (top medium) on top of the lighter fluid because of a gravitational field, then that phenomenon is called Rayleigh-Taylor instability (RTI). Despite extensive records of investigating this common phenomenon i.e., RTI with several unique boundary conditions, apparently, there are no prior investigations for the RTI …

Onset of Rayleigh-Bénard Convection in a Micropolar Fluid under the Influence of Temperature Modulation, Electric Field and Internal Heat
Abstract: AbstractThis paper analyses the onset of Rayleigh-Bénard convection in a micropolar fluid subject to an Imposed Time-periodic Boundary Temperature (ITBT) of small amplitude, an AC electric field along with internal heat. The temperature gradient between the walls of the fluid layer consists of a steady part and a time-dependent oscillatory part. The Venezian approach is adopted in arriving at the correction Rayleigh number. The effects of the oscillating temperature field …

The Onset of Rayleigh-Bénard-Marangoni Convection in a Ferromagnetic Fluid Layer
Abstract: This study examined the implications of magnetic boundary conditions, which are vertical in nature, on buoyancy and surface tension–driven ferrothermal convection (FTC) in a ferrofluid layer. While the upper surface is stress-free and susceptible to general thermal boundary issues, the bottom surface is stiff and insulating against temperature changes. The eigenvalue issue is solved analytically using the regular perturbation method and numerically using the Galerkin technique. According to analysis, raising …

Study and Performance Analysis of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing with Different Modulation for Rayleigh Channel Model
Abstract: AbstractFor the advancement of wireless communication systems, methods such as MIMO, OFDM and integrating them together as MIMO-OFDM are very useful. OFDM is used in numerous wireless transmission standards nowadays. In OFDM, high rate data stream is divided into low-rate streams which are transmitted together over a number of subcarriers. A broadband and frequency-selective channel are transformed into a multiplicity of parallel narrow-band single channels by the OFDM modulation. By …
