Time Evolution Features of Entropy Generation Rate in Turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard Convection with Mixed Insulating and Conducting Boundary Conditions

Time evolution features of kinetic and thermal entropy generation rates in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convection with mixed insulating and conducting boundary conditions at <i>Ra</i> = 10<sup>9</sup> are numerically investigated using the lattice Boltzmann method. The sta...
