Fine vortex structure and flow transition to the geostrophic regime in rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection
Jun-Qiang Shi, Hao-Yuan Lu, Shan-Shan Ding +1
We present spatial-resolved measurements of the columnar vortex structures in rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection. The scaled radial profiles of the azimuthal velocity and…
Anomalous vortex motion induced by asymmetric vorticity distribution in rapidly rotating thermal convection
Shan-Shan Ding, Kai Leong Chong, Jun-Qiang Shi +4
In rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection, columnar vortices advect horizontally in a stochastic manner. When the centrifugal buoyancy is present the vortices exhibit radial motions t…
Crossover from ballistic to diffusive vortex motion in convection
Kai Leong Chong, Jun-Qiang Shi, Shanshan Ding +4
Vortices play an unique role in heat and momentum transports in astro- and geo-physics, and it is also the origin of the Earth's dynamo. A question existing for a long time is whet…
