Abstract-A detailed numerical study has been carried out to investigate transient natural convection in
a binary mixture in square enclosures with the simultaneous presence of temperature and concentration
gradients. Results are particularly presented to illustrate the effects of the combined thermal and solutal
buoyancy forces on the temporal evolution of the flow pattern and the associated heat and mass transfer
for both augmenting and opposing flows. The effects of the buoyancy ratio are found to be rather significant
on the flow pattern and heat and mass transfer especially for the opposing flows.

to be abruptly elevated to a higher value ir,n. Accordingly, horizontal temperature and concentration
gradients are imposed on the fluid. and the flow is
then initiated and evolves under the action of the
combined driving forces due to these gradients. The
transient developments of flow, temperature and concentration fields in the cavity can be predicted, with
the Boussinesq approximations [7. 13. 181, by solving
the following governing differential equations in
dimensionless form :

It is noticed that the volumetric expansion
coefficient due to temperature change, defined as
is normally positive, but the
BT = -(l/P)(aO~W,p,
volumetric expansion coefficient for concentration
change, defined as & = - (l~P)(~P~a~,)r~ can bc
either positive or negative. In this study &,, is taken
to be negative, that is, component I is assumed
to be heavier than component 2 in the mixture
(dp/aw, > 0). As a result, the buoyancy ratio N is always negative. To facilitate the analysis, the thermophysical properties of the mixture are considered
to be constant except the density in the buoyancy
terms [7, 181. This simplification is appropriate when
both components in the mixture have comparable
molecular weights or when the mixture is dilute.
Four non-dimensional
governing
parameters
appear in the above fo~ulation,
namely, the Prandtl
number Pr, Schmidt number SC, heat transfer
Grashof number Gr, and the buoyancy ratio N.

hat sich gezeigt, dag der EinfluB des Verhiiltnisses der Auftriebsktifte auf die Striimungsform und die
