ASAC MICOWAE EAIG O UI/SOI AYES A SUY O YOYAMIC SAIIY A MEIG O OAGAIO y o Gicis In this work we study the effects of externally induced heating on the dynamics of fluid layers, and materials composed of two phases separated by a thermally driven moving front. One novel aspect of our study, is in the nature of the external source which is provided by the action of microwaves acting on dielectric materials. The main challenge is to model and solve systems of differential equations which couple fluid dynamical motions (the Navier-Stokes equations for non-isothermal flows) and electromagnetic wave propagation (governed by Maxwell's equations). When an electromagnetic wave impinges on a material, energy is generated within the material due to dipolar and ohmic heating. The electrical and thermal properties of the material dictate the dynamics of the heating process, as well as steady-state temperature profiles. Such forms of heating have received little attention in studies of hydrodynamic instabilities of non-isothermal flows, such as the classical Benard problem, for instance. The novel feature, which allows possibilities for fluid management and control, is the non-local coupling between the electro- magnetic field and the temperature distribution within the fluid. In the first part of the thesis, we consider hydrodynamic instabilities of such systems with particular emphasis on conditions for onset of convection. This is achieved by solving the linear stability equations in order to identify parameter values which produce instability. The analysis and subsequent numerical solutions are carried out both for materials with constant dielectric attributes (in such cases the electric field equations decouple and they can be solved in closed form), and materials with temperature dependent MICOWAE EAIG O UI/SOI AYES A SUY O YOYAMIC SAIIY A MEIG O OAGAIO y o Gicis A isseaio Sumie o e acuy o ew esey Isiue o ecoogy i aia uime o e equiemes o e egee o oco o iosoy eame o Maemaics Augus 199 AOA AGE MICOWAE EAIG O UI/SOI AYES A SUY O YOYAMIC SAIIY A MEIG O OAGAIO o Gicis Gregory X.
