Fully developed anelastic convection with no-slip boundaries

Chris A. Jones, Krzysztof A. Mizerski, Mouloud Kessar

Anelastic convection at high Rayleigh number in a plane parallel layer with no slip boundaries is considered. Energy and entropy balance equations are derived, and they are used to…

Large-scale-vortex dynamos in planar rotating convection

Céline Guervilly, David W. Hughes, Chris A. Jones

Several recent studies have demonstrated how large-scale vortices may arise spontaneously in rotating planar convection. Here we examine the dynamo properties of such flows in rota…

Generation of magnetic fields by large-scale vortices in rotating convection

Celine Guervilly, David W. Hughes, Chris A. Jones

We propose a new self-consistent dynamo mechanism for the generation of large-scale magnetic fields in natural objects. Recent computational studies have described the formation of…

Large-scale vortices in rapidly rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection

Céline Guervilly, David W. Hughes, Chris A. Jones

Using numerical simulations of rapidly rotating Boussinesq convection in a Cartesian box, we study the formation of long-lived, large-scale, depth-invariant coherent structures. Th…

On the necessary conditions for bursts of convection within the rapidly rotating cylindrical annulus

Robert J. Teed, Chris A. Jones, Rainer Hollerbach

Zonal flows are often found in rotating convective systems. Not only are these jet-flows driven by the convection, they can also have a profound effect on the nature of the convect…

Rapidly rotating plane layer convection with zonal flow

Robert J. Teed, Chris A. Jones, Rainer Hollerbach

The onset of convection in a rapidly rotating layer in which a thermal wind is present is studied. Diffusive effects are included. The main motivation is from convection in planeta…
