Oscillations of the large-scale circulation in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection: the off-center mode and its relationship with the torsional mode
Quan Zhou, Heng-Dong Xi, Sheng-Qi Zhou +2
We report an experimental study of the large-scale circulation (LSC) in a turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection cell with aspect ratio unity. The temperature-extremum-extraction (TE…

Origin of the Temperature Oscillation in Turbulent Thermal Convection
Heng-Dong Xi, Sheng-Qi Zhou, Quan Zhou +2
We report an experimental study of the three-dimensional spatial structure of the low frequency temperature oscillations in a cylindrical Rayleigh-Bénard convection cell. It is fou…

Comparative experimental study of local mixing of active and passive scalars in turbulent thermal convection
Quan Zhou, Ke-Qing Xia
We investigate experimentally the statistical properties of active and passive scalar fields in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection in water, at . Both the local co…
