Popis: | This article deals with mixed convection of a binary mixture within a rectangular duct heated from below and under Soret influence. Going forward, the problem is referred to as the Poiseuille Rayleigh Benard Soret (PRBS) problem. We study the pattern formation of a binary mixture heated from below in the presence of a horizontal flow. When the system exhibits a supercritical bifurcation, either 2-D or 3-D convective structures appear. In a layer of infinite extent the presence of through-flow breaks the rotational symmetry, and the system at the convective threshold has to decide between longitudinal and transverse rolls among several unstable modes; we focus attention on transverse rolls. These rolls are generally unsteady and form traveling waves along the duct, and the presence of through-flow reduces the size of the region of convective instability. We show that the spanwise Ay aspect ratio has a strong influence on the threshold of convection, and in binary mixtures with a negative separation ratio N... |
