Heat transport in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection: Effect of finite top- and bottom-plate conductivity
Eric Brown, Alexei Nikolaenko, Denis Funfschilling +1
We describe three apparatus, known as the large, medium, and small apparatus, used for high-precision measurements of the Nusselt number N as a function of the Rayleigh number R fo…
Reynolds numbers of the large-scale flow in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard Convection
Guenter Ahlers, Eric Brown, Denis Funfschilling +1
We measured Reynolds numbers R_e of turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection over the Rayleigh-number range 2 times 10^8 < R < 10^11 and Prandtl-number range 3.3 < sigma < 29 for cylin…
Heat transport by turbulent Rayleigh-Benard Convection in cylindrical samples with aspect ratio one and larger
Denis Funfschilling, Eric Brown, Alexei Nikolaenko +1
We present high-precision measurements of the Nusselt number N as a function of the Rayleigh number R for cylindrical samples of water (Prandtl number sigma = 4.38) with diameters…
Absense of slow transients, and the effect of imperfect vertical alignment, in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection
Guenter Ahlers, Eric Brown, Alexei Nikolaenko
We report experimental results for the influence of a tilt angle beta relative to gravity on turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection of cylindrical samples. The measurements were made…
Orientation changes of the large-scale circulation in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection
Eric Brown, Alexei Nikoleanko, Guenter Ahlers
We present measurements of the orientation theta_0(t) of the large-scale circulation (LSC) of turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection in cylindrical cells of aspect ratio 1. theta_0(t…
Heat transport by turbulent Rayleigh-B'enard Convection in cylindrical cells with aspect ratio one and less
Alexei Nikolaenko, Eric Brown, Denis Funfschilling +1
We present high-precision measurements of the Nusselt number N as a function of the Rayleigh number R for cylindrical samples of water (Prandtl number sigma = 4.4) with a diameter…
