Lifetimes of metastable windy states in two-dimensional Rayleigh-Bénard convection with stress-free boundaries
Qi Wang, David Goluskin, Detlef Lohse
Two-dimensional horizontally periodic Rayleigh-Bénard convection between stress-free boundaries displays two distinct types of states, depending on the initial conditions. Roll sta…
Universal properties of penetrative turbulent Rayleigh--Bénard convection in cold water near
Qi Wang, Philipp Reiter, Detlef Lohse +1
Penetrative turbulence, which occurs in a convectively unstable fluid layer and penetrates into an adjacent, originally stably stratified layer, is numerically and theoretically an…
Regime transitions in thermally driven high-Rayleigh number vertical convection
Qi Wang, Hao-Ran Liu, Roberto Verzicco +2
Vertical convection is investigated using direct numerical simulations over a wide range of Rayleigh numbers with fixed Prandtl number , in a two-dime…
Scaling in internally heated convection: a unifying theory
Qi Wang, Detlef Lohse, Olga Shishkina
We offer a unifying theory for turbulent purely internally heated convection, generalizing the unifying theories of Grossmann and Lohse (2000, 2001) for Rayleigh--Bénard turbulence…
Multiple states in turbulent large-aspect ratio thermal convection: What determines the number of convection rolls?
Qi Wang, Roberto Verzicco, Detlef Lohse +1
Recent findings suggest that wall-bounded turbulent flow can take different statistically stationary turbulent states, with different transport properties, even for the very same v…
From zonal flow to convection rolls in Rayleigh-Bénard convection with free-slip plates
Qi Wang, Kai Leong Chong, Richard J. A. M. Stevens +2
Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convection with free-slip plates and horizontally periodic boundary conditions is investigated using direct numerical simulations. Two configurations are consi…
