Transitional boundary layers in low-Prandtl-number convection
Jörg Schumacher, Vinodh Bandaru, Ambrish Pandey +1
The boundary layer structure of the velocity and temperature fields in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard flows in closed cylindrical cells of unit aspect ratio is revisited from a transiti…
Extreme dissipation event due to plume collision in a turbulent convection cell
Joerg Schumacher, Janet D. Scheel
An extreme dissipation event in the bulk of a closed three-dimensional turbulent convection cell is found to be correlated with a strong reduction of the large-scale circulation fl…
Global and local statistics in turbulent convection at low Prandtl numbers
Janet D. Scheel, Joerg Schumacher
Statistical properties of turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection at low Prandtl numbers (Pr), which are typical for liquid metals such as mercury, gallium or liquid sodium, are inves…
Local boundary layer scales in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection
Janet D. Scheel, Joerg Schumacher
We compute fully local boundary layer scales in three-dimensional turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection. These scales are directly connected to the highly intermittent fluctuations…
