Onset of convection with temperature- and depth-dependent viscosity
[1] We derive a scaling law for the onset of convection in an incompressible fluid cooled from above with temperatureand depth-dependent viscosity, on the basis of 2-D numerical simulation. Rayleigh numbers up to 10 are considered. The activation energy is varied from 0 to 200 kJ mol , and a variation of up to 10 is considered in depth-dependent reference viscosity. Our scaling law is shown to ...
متن کاملBifurcations in a convection problem with temperature-dependent viscosity
A convection problem with temperature-dependent viscosity in an infinite layer is presented. As described, this problem has important applications in mantle convection. The existence of a stationary bifurcation is proved together with a condition to obtain the critical parameters at which the bifurcation takes place. For a general dependence of viscosity with temperature a numerical strategy fo...
متن کاملSpectral numerical schemes for time-dependent convection with viscosity dependent on temperature
This article proposes spectral numerical methods to solve the time evolution of convection problems with viscosity strongly depending on temperature at infinite Prandtl number. Although we verify the proposed techniques just for viscosities that depend exponentially on temperature, the methods are extensible to other dependence laws. The set-up is a 2D domain with periodic boundary conditions a...
متن کاملScaling laws for rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
Numerical simulations of large aspect ratio, three-dimensional rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection for no-slip boundary conditions have been performed in both cylinders and periodic boxes. We have focused near the threshold for the supercritical bifurcation from the conducting state to a convecting state exhibiting domain chaos. A detailed analysis of these simulations has been carried out and ...

We establish the well-posedness of the infinite Prandtl number model for convection with temperature-dependent viscosity, free-slip boundary condition and zero horizontal fluxes.
