Convection in a shallow rectangular cavity due to internal heat generation

Steady two-dimensional convective motions generated in a shallow cavity by uniformly distributed internal heat sources are analyzed for the case where the vertical end walls are isothermal and the horizontal boundaries are adiabatic. Rayleigh numbers are considered for which the flow and temperature...

Zusammenfassung:	Steady two-dimensional convective motions generated in a shallow cavity by uniformly distributed internal heat sources are analyzed for the case where the vertical end walls are isothermal and the horizontal boundaries are adiabatic. Rayleigh numbers are considered for which the flow and temperature fields in the cavity are influenced by nonlinear effects. Solutions are obtained using the method of matched asymptotic expansions.
