Inverse centrifugal effect induced by collective motion of vortices in rotating turbulent convection

Shan-Shan Ding, Kai Leong Chong, Jun-Qiang Shi +4

When a fluid system is subject to strong rotation, centrifugal fluid motion is expected, i.e., denser (lighter) fluid moves outward (inward) from (toward) the axis of rotation. Her…

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…

Quasistatic magnetoconvection: Heat transport enhancement and boundary layer crossing

Zi Li Lim, Kai Leong Chong, Guang-Yu Ding +1

We present a numerical study of quasistatic magnetoconvection in a cubic Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convection cell subjected to a vertical external magnetic field. For moderate values o…

Multiple-resolution scheme in finite-volume code for active or passive scalar turbulence

Kai Leong Chong, Guangyu Ding, Ke-Qing Xia

In scalar turbulence it is sometimes the case that the scalar diffusivity is smaller than the viscous diffusivity. The thermally-driven turbulent convection in water is a typical e…
