Numerical Simulation of Multiplicity and Stability of Mixed Convection in Rotating Curved Ducts

<p>A numerical study is made on the fully developed bifurcation structure and stability of the mixed convection in rotating curved ducts of square cross-section with the emphasis on the effect of buoyancy force. The rotation can be positive or negative. The fluid can be heated or cooled. The s...
