Abstract: A three-dimensional numerical study has been performed to investigate double-diffusive, natural convection in a cubic enclosure subject to opposing and horizontal gradients of heat and solute. The flow is driven by buoyancy forces due to temperature and solutal gradients. Constant temperature and concentration are imposed along the two vertical side walls of the cubic enclosure, while the remaining walls are impermeable and adiabatic. The numerical simulations presented here span a wide range of thermal Rayleigh number (10.0

TL;DR: In this article, Wang et al. present a numerical approach to visualize conjugate heat and mass transfer in anisotropic media, including diffusion coefficient of transportation function at the interface of different media, different numerical approaches for solving visualization functions, non-dimensional forms of heatfunction and massfunction matching the spatial Nusselt and Sherwood numbers.

TL;DR: By optimizing the data layout, minimizing the memory access frequency, and adjusting the number of gangs and vector length, it is shown that the enhanced parallel computations can result in orders of magnitudes of speedup relative to the serial implementation of the LB algorithm.

TL;DR: In this article, a two-phase mixture model is used to study natural convection in side-heated square enclosures filled with alumina-water nanofluids having temperature-dependent properties, in the hypothesis that Brownian diffusion and thermophoresis are the primary slip mechanisms between solid and liquid phases.
