HYDRODYNAMICS AND HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER IN MUSHROOM-SHAPED HEADS OF THERMOCHEMICAL PLUMES

The model of a thermochemical mantle plume is described. The scheme of origination of the plume from the core-mantle boundary is presented. The basic ratios for determining the thermal power and the diameters of thermochemical plumes are given. After eruption of the melt from the plume conduit to th...
