Thermal convection in a rotating binary viscoelastic liquid mixture

Abstract:

In this work we report theoretical and numerical results on convection in a viscoelastic binary mixture under rotation. In particular, we focus in the Maxwelian case of viscoelastic fluid. We obtain explicit expressions for the convective thresholds in terms of the mixture parameters of the system in the case of idealized boundary conditions. We also calculate numerically the convective thresholds for the case of realistic rigid-rigid boundary conditions. © EDP Sciences/ Societé Italiana di Fisica/Springer-Verlag 2007.
