Simulation of anisotropic motion by mean curvature -- comparison of phase field and sharp interface approaches.
We present in this work a numerical study of a problem governed by Navier-Stokes equations and heat equation. The mathematical problem under consideration is obtained by modelling the natural convection of an incompressible fluid, in laminar flow between two horizontal concentric coaxial cylinders, the temperature of the inner cylinder is supposed to be greater than the outer one. The numerical simulation of the flow is carried out by collocation-Legendre...
