Abstract
A spectral method is detailed to simulate the viscous Boussinesq flow of a plume of heavy fluid emanating from a line source on the bottom of a channel. A small initially semi-circular “bubble” grows for small time, rising up to some height before it starts to flow outwards horizontally. We discuss the results for different values of Reynolds number, flow rate and density differential, considering the viscous and inertial effects.
