Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

Based on the similarity theory, a complete set of dimensionless parameters was found, which would allow one to choose the geometry, temperature, and other conditions leading to similarity between hydrodynamic phenomena in melted semiconductors and model media. Direct calculations performed by the Oberbeck-Boussinesq system of equations validate our theoretical approach to the problem of choosing model media for various liquids and different gravity conditions.
