On multiple stable states in Taylor-Couette flow with realistic end-wall boundary conditions

Marvin Kriening, Zhongzhi Yao, Mohammad S. Emran +3

We investigate Taylor-Couette flow with realistic no-slip boundary conditions at all surfaces through direct numerical simulations (DNS) and theoretical analysis. Imposing physical…

Mean Temperature Profiles in Turbulent Thermal Convection

Olga Shishkina, Susanne Horn, Mohammad S. Emran +1

To predict the mean temperature profiles in turbulent thermal convection, the thermal boundary layer (BL) equation including the effects of fluctuations has to be solved. In Shishk…

Scaling relations in large-Prandtl-number natural thermal convection

Olga Shishkina, Mohammad S. Emran, Siegfried Grossmann +1

In this study we follow Grossmann and Lohse, Phys. Rev. Lett. 86 (2001), who derived various scalings regimes for the dependence of the Nusselt number and the Reynolds number…

Large-scale mean patterns in turbulent convection

Mohammad S. Emran, Jörg Schumacher

Large-scale patterns, which are well-known from the spiral defect chaos regime of thermal convection at Rayleigh numbers , continue to exist in three-dimensional numeric…

Resolving the fine-scale structure in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection

Janet D. Scheel, Mohammad S. Emran, Joerg Schumacher

We present high-resolution direct numerical simulation studies of turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection in a closed cylindrical cell with an aspect ratio of one. The focus of our an…

Boundary layer evolution in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection

Herwig Zilken, Mohammad S. Emran, Joerg Schumacher

We present a fluid dynamics video which illustrates the dynamics of the velocity field in the boundary layer in a turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection flow. The data are obtained f…
