Abstract

Convective flows in a plane layer of viscous fluid in the presence of an oscillating external force are investigated numerically [1 – 8]. The layer is assumed to be placed in a gravitational field. The cases in which the external field oscillations are generated by rotation about the horizontal axis or by vibration in the longitudinal direction are considered. The Navier-Stokes equations and the Boussinesq approximation are used for describing the fluid motion. The flows developing in the layer in the presence of a transverse temperature gradient are determined, the stability boundaries of these flows are found, and the supercritical motion regimes are studied. These investigations are carried out using the averaging method (in order to find the stability limits for high rotation velocities and vibration frequencies) and the Galerkin method.
