Abstract This study carries the natural thermosolutal convection induced in heterogeneous porous media. The configuration considered is cartesian. The horizontal and vertical walls are submitted to different mass and heat transfer. The equations which govern this type of flow are solved numerically by using the finite volume method. The flow is considered two-dimensional and laminar. The model of Darcy and the approximation of the Boussinesq are taken into account. The parameters which control the problem are the thermal Darcy-Rayleigh number, Rt, the buoyancy ratio, N, the Lewis number, Le, the aspect ratio of the enclosure, A… More >
