Does the Boussinesq approximation correctly describe statistically stationary states of Rayleigh-Bénard convection?
Erik Lindborg
It is generally believed that statistically stationary states of Rayleigh-Bénard convection (RBC) can be described by statistically stationary solutions to the Boussinesq approxima…
Scaling in two-dimensional Rayleigh-Bénard convection
Erik Lindborg
An equation for the evolution of mean kinetic energy, , in a 2-D or 3-D Rayleigh-Bénard system with domain height is derived. Assuming classical Nusselt number scaling,…
Helmholtz decompositions of horizontal structure functions including components associated with cyclone-anticyclone symmetry breaking
Erik Lindborg
In recent years, several studies have been made in which atmospheric and oceanic data were used to decompose horizontal velocity statistics into a rotational component, associated…
Another comment on claims of a transition to the ultimate regime of heat transfer
Erik Lindborg
Claims made by Zhu et al., PRL 120, 144502, (2018), that they had found evidence of a transition to the so called "ultimate regime" in 2D simulations of Rayleigh-Bénard convection,…
Comparative terrestrial atmospheric circulation regimes in simplified global circulation models: II. energy budgets and spectral transfers
Peter Read, Fachreddin Tabataba-Vakili, Yixiong Wang +4
The energetics of possible global atmospheric circulation patterns in an Earth-like atmosphere are explored using a simplified GCM based on the University of Hamburg's Portable Uni…
A note on acoustic turbulence
Erik Lindborg
We consider a three-dimensional acoustic field of an ideal gas in which all entropy production is confined to weak shocks and show that similar scaling relations hold for such a fi…
