متن کاملThree-Dimensional Spherical Models of Convection in the Earth's Mantle.
Three-dimensional, spherical models of mantle convection in the earth reveal that upwelling cylindrical plumes and downwelling planar sheets are the primary features of mantle circulation. Thus, subduction zones and descending sheetlike slabs in the mantle are fundamental characteristics of thermal convection in a spherical shell and are not merely the consequences of the rigidity of the slabs,...
متن کامل1 Three - Dimensional Spherical Shell Convection at Infinite
We present a new finite difference code for modeling three-dimensional thermal convection in a spherical shell using the “cubed sphere” method of Ronchi et al. [1]. The equation of motion is solved using a poloidal potential formulation of the equation of motion for an iso-viscous, infinite Prandtl number fluid on a finite difference grid and advective transport is implemented using the 2-order...
متن کاملEntropy Generation of Double Diffusive Natural Convection in a Three Dimensional Differentially Heated Enclosure
Entropy generation of double diffusive natural convection in a three dimensional differentially heated enclosure has been performed numerically. Vertical walls of enclosure are heated differentially and remaining walls are adiabatic. The obtained results were presented via iso-concentration, iso-temperatures, velocity vector projection, particle trajectories, velocity profiles, iso-entropy, loc...
متن کاملNatural doubly diffusive convection in three-dimensional enclosures
Numerical continuation is used to study bifurcations in doubly diffusive convection in three-dimensional enclosures driven by opposing horizontal temperature and concentration gradients, and the results are compared with the two-dimensional case. Direct numerical simulation is used to show that in certain regimes the first stable nontrivial state of the three-dimensional system is a finite ampl...
