Motion and wake structure of spherical particles
Christian Veldhuis, Arie Biesheuvel, Leen van Wijngaarden +1
This paper presents results from a flow visualization study of the wake structures behind solid spheres rising or falling freely in liquids under the action of gravity. These show…
Rayleigh and Prandtl number scaling in the bulk of Rayleigh-Benard turbulence
Enrico Calzavarini, Detlef Lohse, Federico Toschi +1
The Rayleigh (Ra) and Prandtl (Pr) number scaling of the Nusselt number Nu, the Reynolds number Re, the temperature fluctuations, and the kinetic and thermal dissipation rates is s…
Wind reversals in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection
Francisco Fontenele Araujo, S. Grossmann, D. Lohse
The phenomenon of irregular cessation and subsequent reversal of the large-scale circulation in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection is theoretically analysed. The force and therma…
