Turbulent Convection in a Stratified Binary Mixture at a Vertical Surface

Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

An analytical solution is found for the nonlinear integral model of development of turbulent convection in a stratified binary mixture at a vertical surface. The character of convection can greatly differ from the case of a one‐component liquid. In particular, the sign of the temperature response of the medium to heating can differ from the “intuitively expected” one, i.e., the arising ascending convective jet can be colder and not hotter than the background.
