Thermal boundary layer profiles in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection in a cylindrical sample
Richard J. A. M. Stevens, Quan Zhou, Siegfried Grossmann +3
We numerically investigate the structures of the near-plate temperature profiles close to the bottom and top plates of turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard flow in a cylindrical sample at Ray…
Horizontal Structures of Velocity and Temperature Boundary Layers in 2D Numerical Turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard Convection
Quan Zhou, Kazuyasu Sugiyama, Richard J. A. M. Stevens +3
We investigate the structures of the near-plate velocity and temperature profiles at different horizontal positions along the conducting bottom (and top) plate of a Rayleigh-Bénard…
Flow reversals in thermally driven turbulence
Kazuyasu Sugiyama, Rui Ni, Richard J. A. M. Stevens +7
We analyze the reversals of the large scale flow in Rayleigh-Bénard convection both through particle image velocimetry flow visualization and direct numerical simulations (DNS) of…
Disentangle plume-induced anisotropy in the velocity field in buoyancy-driven turbulence
Quan Zhou, Ke-Qing Xia
We present a method of disentangling the anisotropies produced by the cliff structures in turbulent velocity field and test it in the system of turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) conve…
