Parallel flows with Soret effect in tilted cylinders

Henry and Roux (1986, 1987, 1988) have conducted extensive numerical studies on the interaction of Soret separation with convection in cylindrical geometry. Many of their solutions exhibit parallel flow away from end walls. Their parallel flow results can be matched by closed-form solutions. Solutions are nonunique in some parameter regions. Disappearance of one branch of solutions correlates with a sudden transition of Henry and Roux's results from a separated to a well-mixed flow.
