About this ebook

This monograph provides an account of thermal convection with a focus on Cattaneo’s heat flux equation. Various applications of the equation are analyzed, such as those pertaining to nanoscale mechanics, nuclear engineering, the treatment of various diseases, and more. The influence it has had on problems in the field of thermal convection is highlighted as well. Several other important topics are incorporated, including:
  • Guyer-Krumhansl terms
  • Kelvin-Voigt fluid theory
  • Navier-Stokes theory
  • Higher gradient fluid theories

Thermal Convection with a Cattaneo Flux Law will appeal to researchers interested in exploring this active area.
