Scaling of high-Rayleigh-number convection based on internal convective boundary layer
Chenning Tong
We propose a phenomenological model for thermal convection at high Rayleigh numbers. It hypothesizes existence of a high-Reynolds-number turbulent boundary layer near each horizont…

Symmetries and similarities of the zero-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary
Chenning Tong
The symmetries and similarities of the zero-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layer (ZPGTBL) are investigated to derive the full set of similarity variables, to derive the simil…
