Heat transfer - A review of 2001 literature

TL;DR: In this paper, contact conduction and contact resistance were investigated. But contact conuction with convection, phase change, and phase change was not one of the main issues in this paper.

The Soret effect on convection in a horizontal porous domain under cross temperature and concentration gradients

TL;DR: In this paper, natural convection with Soret effect in a binary fluid saturating a shallow horizontal porous layer is studied both numerically and analytically, where the vertical walls of the enclosure are heated and cooled by uniform heat fluxes and a solutal gradient is imposed vertically.

Convection in Porous Media

TL;DR: In this paper, an introduction to convection in porous media assumes the reader is familiar with basic fluid mechanics and heat transfer, going on to cover insulation of buildings, energy storage and recovery, geothermal reservoirs, nuclear waste disposal, chemical reactor engineering and the storage of heat-generating materials like grain and coal.

Onset of Thermohaline Convection in a Porous Medium

TL;DR: In this article, the problem of the onset of convection, induced by buoyancy effects resulting from vertical thermal and solute concentration gradients, in a horizontal layer of a saturated porous medium, is treated by linear perturbation analysis.

Natural convection with combined heat and mass transfer buoyancy effects in a porous medium

TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive study of the natural convection phenomenon occurring inside a porous layer with both heat and mass transfer from the side is described, which is driven by a combination of buoyancy effects due to both temperature and concentration variations.

Numerical study of double-diffusive natural convection in a porous cavity using the Darcy-Brinkman formulation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors deal with natural convection in confined porous media, driven by cooperating thermal and solutal buoyancy forces, and the results are mainly analyzed in terms of the average heat and mass transfers at the walls of the enclosure.
