When this primary flow is very slow, thermal diffusion from the surface 2 = 0 into the medium becomes important, and athermalboundarylayer appears.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Between the inner wall of the tube and the hot ring a further zone can be distinguished representing thethermalboundarylayer.
From theCambridge English Corpus
These are due to small perturbations in thethermalboundarylayers being swept into the plumes by the large-scale flow.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Initiation of the forcing was followed by the diffusive growth of athermalboundarylayer adjacent to the forcing surface.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Thethermalboundaryconditions on the wheel can be described in two ways.
From theCambridge English Corpus
It is seen that the disturbances are limited to the interior of thethermalboundarylayer.
From theCambridge English Corpus
When a steady state has been established, athermalboundarylayer of exponential form then exists below the surface.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The mechanism of these effects lies in the instability of thethermalboundarylayers over the heated or cooled horizontal boundaries.
From theCambridge English Corpus
In the light of more recent work comparingthermalboundary-layer instability and cyclic triggering, we examine the significance of the point of origin more closely.
From theCambridge English Corpus
In addition, 0 is estimated for thethermalboundarylayer.
From theCambridge English Corpus

From theCambridge English Corpus
But, with 0, thethermalboundarylayer never migrates into the fluid interior.
From theCambridge English Corpus
It must be remembered that the isothermal region remains constant, while thethermalboundarylayer becomes shallower.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Because thethermalboundarylayer adds vertical structure that is not taken into account, thin-layer theory is of questionable significance for lava.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Instead, the solution exhibited finite-amplitude oscillations about a mean state, caused by recurring instabilities in thethermalboundarylayers.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Initiation of collision-related magmatism in the complex can be explained by delamination of the thickenedthermalboundarylayer, or removal of a subducted plate (slab breakoff).
From theCambridge English Corpus

From theCambridge English Corpus
