Thermal Convection with Conducting Lid

This study of thermal convection uses the following geometry: a horizontal layer of fluid heated from below of solid lid at bottom and cooled from above. A variety range of thermal conductivity ratio, $\kappa$ is considered to investigate the interface temperature, $\theta_{i}$ between solid and fluid region. Periodic boundary conditions are employed in the horizontal direction to allow for lateral freedom for the convection cells. A two-dimensional solution for unsteady natural convection is obtained, using an accurate and efficient Chebyshev spectral multi-domain methodology, for different effective Rayleigh numbers, $Ra_{eff}$ varying over the range of $10^{4}\;to\;10^{7}$ in which the effective Rayleigh number is defined as $Ra{\times}<\overline{T}_{i}>$.
