2-D numerical experiments of thermal convection of highly viscous fluids under strong adiabatic compression: implications on mantle convection of super-Earths with various sizes
Abstract We conduct a series of numerical experiments of thermal convection of compressible fluids with temperature-dependent viscosity, in order to study how the adiabatic compression and model geometries affect the mantle convection on super-Earths. A two-dimensional basally heated convection is c...
