A Spectral Solenoidal-Galerkin Method for Rotating Thermal Convection between Rigid Plates
The problem of thermal convection between rotating rigid plates under the influence of gravity is treated numerically. The approach uses solenoidal basis functions and their duals which are divergence free. The representation in terms of the solenoidal bases provides ease in the implementation by a...
