A second-order diffusive-interface immersed boundary method for incompressible flow with phase change and moving interfaces

Wenyuan Chen, Yantao Yang

Accurately resolving interfacial gradients is critical for simulating two-phase flows, particularly those involving phase transitions or active matter. The traditional diffuse-inte…

Realizing the ultimate scaling of the convection turbulence by spatially decoupling the thermal and viscous boundary layers

Shufan Zou, Yantao Yang

Turbulent convection plays a crucial role in many natural environments, ranging from Earth ocean, mantle and outer core, to various astrophysical systems. For such flows with extre…

What rotation rate maximizes heat transport in rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection with Prandtl number larger than one?

Yantao Yang, Roberto Verzicco, Detlef Lohse +1

The heat transfer and flow structure in rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection are strongly influenced by the Rayleigh (), Prandtl (), and Rossby () number. For $Pr\gtrsim…

Subcritical behaviour in double diffusive convection within the diffusive regime

Kai Leong Chong, Rui Yang, Yantao Yang +2

We conduct two- and three-dimensional simulations for double diffusive convection in the diffusive regime, where the fluid flow is driven by a destabilizing temperature gradient an…
