How will convection be setup when the walls have the same temperature at the top and the bottom? the air next to the right wall will have the same temperature at the top and the bottom, hence , density difference is virtually non-existent. or am i missing something?
thank you for your reply. I might not have fully defined the problem, it is air in between the two walls. The question therefore is, is convection possible or is conduction the only means of heat transfer through the air in between the two walls
If the temperature of the wall is homogeneous i.e. the entire wall has the same temperature: T1 being the temperature of the left wall and T2 being the temp of the right wall, how will heat transfer take place? Can convection occur here? If yes then how will the bulk motion be set up?

Does this book explain only the 'dyadic tensor notation and manipulation' or goes into the depth of fluid mechanics in general with excellent mathematical explanation? what i want is a book that i can use for Fluid Mechanics in general and not just a single topic.
I want to polish up on the mathematics involved in Fluid Mechanics because I will be pursuing this field for some time to come now. however, I do not know of any good resource where I can learn the Mathematics involved in Fluid Mechanics. Can you please guide me? if there is a book which i can...
This equation was given by Roger Rangel, the guy who teaches intro to fluid mechanics at UC Irvine and has online lectures available. Are you sure there is a mistake in this equation? and if yes, even then how do you reach on to the second equation
I was watching a lecture in which the professor derived the Navier Stokes Equations for const density and viscosity. He however skipped a step and directly went from one equation to another without giving any explanation. I have attached an image file in which the 2nd equation is derived from...
Hi! I am Gohar Shoukat. I am a student of Mechanical Engineering in Pakistan. and I have a lot of questions related to fluid mechanics that I need to ask. Cant wait to get started
