Termální konvekce s volným povrchem v rotujícím ledovém měsíci
Kuchta, Miroslav ; Čadek, Ondřej (advisor) ; Málek, Josef (referee)
Thermal convection with evolving surface in a rotating icy satellite Master's Thesis author: Miroslav Kuchta∗ supervisor: Doc. RNDr. Ondřej Čadek, CSc.† Keywords: Stokes-Fourier system, Free surface, Finite-differences Abstract This thesis is concerned with modeling the surface deformations and thermal convection in a rotating icy satellite. The system of gov- erning equations, that we derive from general balance laws, is solved numerically using the finite-difference method on a staggered grid. Free surface is understood as implicitly described interface between the satellite and an almost massless medium with viscosity orders of magnitude smaller than ice. We design a numerical method capable of tracking the deforming surface. The numerical method is applied to models with temperature-dependent viscosity. ∗ Mathematical Institute of Charles University, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic. miroslav.kuchta@gmail.com † Department of Geophysics, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic. oc@karel.troja.mff.cuni.cz 1
