Universal fluctuations in the bulk of Rayleigh-Bénard turbulence
Yi-Chao Xie, Bu-Ying-Chao Cheng, Yun-Bing Hu +1
We present an investigation of the root-mean-square (rms) temperature and the rms velocity in the bulk of Rayleigh-Bénard turbulence, using new experimental data from t…
Anomalous vortex motion induced by asymmetric vorticity distribution in rapidly rotating thermal convection
Shan-Shan Ding, Kai Leong Chong, Jun-Qiang Shi +4
In rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection, columnar vortices advect horizontally in a stochastic manner. When the centrifugal buoyancy is present the vortices exhibit radial motions t…
Crossover from ballistic to diffusive vortex motion in convection
Kai Leong Chong, Jun-Qiang Shi, Shanshan Ding +4
Vortices play an unique role in heat and momentum transports in astro- and geo-physics, and it is also the origin of the Earth's dynamo. A question existing for a long time is whet…
Quasistatic magnetoconvection: Heat transport enhancement and boundary layer crossing
Zi Li Lim, Kai Leong Chong, Guang-Yu Ding +1
We present a numerical study of quasistatic magnetoconvection in a cubic Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convection cell subjected to a vertical external magnetic field. For moderate values o…
