The onset of convection caused by buoyancy during transient heat conduction in deep fluids

The onset of convection in a thermal layer generated by transient heat conduction in deep fluid is examined. It is generally accepted that buoyancy driven convection predominates in deep fluids while surface tension driven convection can occur only in very thin layers of liquid. The occurrence of bu...
