Convection in Fluids A Rational Analysis and Asymptotic Modelling

In the present monograph, entirely devoted to “Convection in Fluids”, the purpose is to present a unified rational approach of various convective phenomena in fluids (mainly considered as a thermally perfect gas or an expansible liquid), where the main driving mechanism is the buoyancy force (Archim...
