The heat transfer enhancement by unipolar charge injection in a rectangular Rayleigh–Bénard convection

The heat transfer enhancement achieved by the additional electric field in Rayleigh–Bénard convection (RBC) of a dielectric fluid is numerically studied beyond the Rayleigh number Ra = 105. We carried out direct numerical simulations of RBC in a rectangular enclosure under the strong injection condi...
