An adaptation of the low Mach number approximation for supercritical fluid buoyant flows
[Une adaptation de l'approximation faible nombre de Mach aux écoulements de convection naturelle dans les fluides supercritiques]
Comptes Rendus. Mécanique, Volume 333 (2005) no. 5, pp. 397-404.

Cette Note décrit un filtrage acoustique des équations régissant la convection naturelle dans un fluide supercritique due à un faible chauffage. L'approximation faible nombre de Mach obtenue prend en compte la compressibilité du fluide par rapport à la pression hydrostatique. Par la simulation numérique directe de l'écoulement d'un fluide supercritique en configuration de Rayleigh–Bénard, nous montrons que la stratification en densité peut être prise en compte sans effort numérique supplémentaire et qu'elle est fondamentale pour la prédiction du seuil d'instabilité convective induite par un faible chauffage.

This Note describes an acoustic filtering of the equations governing the supercritical fluid buoyant flow driven by a weak heating. The resulting low Mach number approximation takes into account the compressibility of the fluid with respect to the hydrostatic pressure. Using the direct numerical simulation of a supercritical fluid flow in the Rayleigh–Bénard configuration, we show that the density stratification may be taken into account without further numerical effort and is fundamental for the prediction of the convective instability threshold induced by a weak heating.
