INFLUENCE OF MICROPOLAR PARAMETERS ´ ON THE STABILITY DOMAIN IN A RAYLEIGH-B ENARD CONVECTION PROBLEM – A RELIABLE NUMERICAL STUDY
Keywords:
micropolar fluids, spectral methods, Rayleigh numberAbstract
The main objective of this paper is the determination in the parameter space of the neutral hypersurface which separates the domain of stability from the instability domain in a problem of stationary convection in a micropolar fluid [1]. The influence of each of the micropolar parameters on the eigenparameter represented by the Rayleigh number is investigated using a spectral-Galerkin method based on expansion functions proved to assure an exponential convergence and small computational time expenses.
