Boundary Zonal Flow in Rotating Turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard Convection
Xuan Zhang, Dennis P. M. van Gils, Susanne Horn +7
For rapidly rotating turbulent Rayleigh--Bénard convection in a slender cylindrical cell, experiments and direct numerical simulations reveal a boundary zonal flow (BZF) that repla…
Direct assessment of Kolmogorov's first refined similarity hypothesis
John M. Lawson, Eberhard Bodenschatz, Anna N. Knutsen +2
Using volumetric velocity data from a turbulent laboratory water flow and numerical simulations of homogeneous, isotropic turbulence, we present a direct experimental and numerical…
Extreme velocity gradients in turbulent flows
Dhawal Buaria, Alain Pumir, Eberhard Bodenschatz +1
Fully turbulent flows are characterized by intermittent formation of very localized and intense velocity gradients. These gradients can be orders of magnitude larger than their typ…
