Free Convection of a Bingham Fluid in a Differentially-Heated Porous Cavity: The Effect of a Square Grid Microstructure
We examine how a square-grid microstructure affects the manner in which a Bingham fluid is convected in a sidewall-heated rectangular porous cavity. When the porous microstructure is isotropic, flow arises only when the Darcy–Rayleigh number is higher than a critical value, and this corresponds to w...
