Transitional boundary layers in low-Prandtl-number convection
Jörg Schumacher, Vinodh Bandaru, Ambrish Pandey +1
The boundary layer structure of the velocity and temperature fields in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard flows in closed cylindrical cells of unit aspect ratio is revisited from a transiti…
Heat and momentum transfer for magnetoconvection in a vertical external magnetic field
Till Zürner, Wenjun Liu, Dmitry Krasnov +1
The scaling theory of Grossmann and Lohse (J. Fluid Mech. 407, 27 (2000)) for the turbulent heat and momentum transfer is extended to the magnetoconvection case in the presence of…
Extreme dissipation event due to plume collision in a turbulent convection cell
Joerg Schumacher, Janet D. Scheel
An extreme dissipation event in the bulk of a closed three-dimensional turbulent convection cell is found to be correlated with a strong reduction of the large-scale circulation fl…
Heat transport in Rayleigh-Benard convection and angular momentum transport in Taylor-Couette flow: a comparative study
Hannes Brauckmann, Bruno Eckhardt, Joerg Schumacher
Rayleigh-Benard convection and Taylor-Couette flow are two canonical flows that have many properties in common. We here compare the two flows in detail for parameter values where t…
Global and local statistics in turbulent convection at low Prandtl numbers
Janet D. Scheel, Joerg Schumacher
Statistical properties of turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection at low Prandtl numbers (Pr), which are typical for liquid metals such as mercury, gallium or liquid sodium, are inves…
