Abstract

In this chapter, we extend the theory of transformation thermotics for thermal conduction described in Chap. 2 to the case of thermal convection. We adopt a model of creeping flow in porous media where Darcy’s law is valid and heat flux comes from both thermal conduction and convection. Here the transformation theory is established on a set of equations governing the heat and mass transfer in porous media. We investigate both the steady and transient cases and design a cloak, a concentrator and a rotator for model applications.
