A Multipurpose Thermal Convection Setup to Study Turbulent Super Structures
Hiufai Yik, Constantin Schettler, Eberhard Bodenschatz +2
A thermal convection apparatus has been designed to study turbulent super structures at high Rayleigh numbers and Prandtl numbers of the order of unity. This apparatus consists of…
Boundary Zonal Flow in Rotating Turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard Convection
Xuan Zhang, Dennis P. M. van Gils, Susanne Horn +7
For rapidly rotating turbulent Rayleigh--Bénard convection in a slender cylindrical cell, experiments and direct numerical simulations reveal a boundary zonal flow (BZF) that repla…
Diffusion maps embedding and transition matrix analysis of the large-scale flow structure in turbulent Rayleigh--Bénard convection
Péter Koltai, Stephan Weiss
By utilizing diffusion maps embedding and transition matrix analysis we investigate sparse temperature measurement time-series data from Rayleigh--Bénard convection experiments in…
Can hail and rain nucleate cloud droplets?
Prasanth Prabhakaran, Stephan Weiss, Alain Pumir +2
We present results from moist convection in a mixture of pressurized sulfur hexa-flouride (liquid and vapor) and helium (gas) to model the wet and dry components of the earth's atm…
Effect of tilting on turbulent convection: Cylindrical samples with aspect ratio
Stephan Weiss, Guenter Ahlers
We report measurements of properties of turbulent thermal convection of a fluid with a Prandtl number $\Pra=4.38$ in a cylindrical cell with an aspect ratio . The rotationa…
Finite-size effects lead to supercritical bifurcations in turbulent rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection
Stephan Weiss, Richard J. A. M. Stevens, Jin-Qiang Zhong +3
In turbulent thermal convection in cylindrical samples of aspect ratio Γ= D/L (D is the diameter and L the height) the Nusselt number Nu is enhanced when the sample is rotated abou…
