  • Fluid mixing efficiency is a crucial issue in many

engineering applications

  • Efficient mixing is usually related to turbulent regimes and

to mechanical devices

  • Some industrial applications require an efficient mixing in

the absence of turbulence or high shear stresses

  • Rayleigh–B´

enard convection can offer an alternative to the use of mechanical devices

Poincar´ e–Hopf index theorem The sum of the Poincar´ e indexes over all the isolated critical points of a vector field on a compact orientable differentiable manifold is equal to the Euler characteristic of the manifold Change from the cubical domain to the 3D sphere S3

  • the interior of the cubical domain is topologically equivalent

to a 3D open ball B3 and its boundary is equivalent to a 2D sphere S2

  • deform B3 to get a 3D hemisphere whose equator is S2
  • take a symmetric copy of the 3D hemisphere and glue both

hemispheres after identifying the S2 boundaries The Poincar´ e index of a critical point xc satisfying Reλi = 0, is (−1)np, where np = #{λi | Reλi < 0, i = 1, 2, 3}. Interior critical points must be counted twice.

  • The dynamics are characterized by regions with regular

motion surrounded by regions of chaotic motion

  • Changes on the topology and on the chaotic level of the

flows are related to bifurcations of critical points

  • The detailed knowledge of the flow provided by the

dynamical systems approach can be relevant in selecting the parameter ranges and flow patterns at which more efficient mixing is achieved

  • Study the relative position of the most relevant invariant

manifolds of the fixed points and hyperbolic periodic orbits

  • Study the effect of a non–negligible molecular diffusion on

the dynamics of particle trajectories

  • Extend the study to non-stationary flows
