Abstract

The problem of convection in the horizontal fluid layer with a wavy lower boundary is considered. It is shown that for the periodic temperature distribution with a certain phase shift given on the wavy boundary, in the fluid layer a unidirectional horizontal flow arises. The flow velocity linearly decreases with increase in attitude and depends on the relief distribution wavelength. There is an optimum wavelength (of the order of the layer thickness) at which the velocity reaches its maximum value.
