Bistable fully developed mixed convection flow with viscous dissipation in a vertical channel

It is shown that unstable dual solutions in fully developed mixed convection flow in a vertical channel disappear in the presence of relatively strong thermal radiation. In this case, we have a unique stable flow at each pressure gradient. When the effect of thermal radiation is weak another branch...

description It is shown that unstable dual solutions in fully developed mixed convection flow in a vertical channel disappear in the presence of relatively strong thermal radiation. In this case, we have a unique stable flow at each pressure gradient. When the effect of thermal radiation is weak another branch of stable solutions is created, resulting in bistable flows. In this case, the flow exhibits hysteresis with variation of the pressure gradient. Optically, a thin radiation model is used.
