Abstract

Peculiar oscillating convection is observed when two-dimensional double-diffusive convection in porous medium is analysed numerically. The top and bottom walls of an enclosure are insulated, and constant and opposing heat and mass fluxes are prescribed on the vertical walls. The peculiar oscillations are of three types: (1) Chaotic oscillations wherein the main flow is due to temperature; however, the convection due to concentration is strong enough to generate this peculiar oscillation. (2) The ‘sudden steady state case’ caused by the shifts from thermally-driven to concentration-driven forces. (3) The ‘re-oscillation case’ caused by the convection pattern changes from centrosymmetric to non-centrosymmetric.
