From Rayleigh-Bénard convection to porous-media convection: how porosity affects heat transfer and flow structure
Shuang Liu, Linfeng Jiang, Kai Leong Chong +6
We perform a numerical study of the heat transfer and flow structure of Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convection in (in most cases regular) porous media, which are comprised of circular, so…
From zonal flow to convection rolls in Rayleigh-Bénard convection with free-slip plates
Qi Wang, Kai Leong Chong, Richard J. A. M. Stevens +2
Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convection with free-slip plates and horizontally periodic boundary conditions is investigated using direct numerical simulations. Two configurations are consi…
Subcritical behaviour in double diffusive convection within the diffusive regime
Kai Leong Chong, Rui Yang, Yantao Yang +2
We conduct two- and three-dimensional simulations for double diffusive convection in the diffusive regime, where the fluid flow is driven by a destabilizing temperature gradient an…
Convection-dominated dissolution for single and multiple immersed sessile droplets
Kai Leong Chong, Yanshen Li, Chong Shen Ng +2
We numerically investigate both single and multiple droplet dissolution with droplets consisting of lighter liquid dissolving in a denser host liquid. The significance of buoyancy…
Anomalous vortex motion induced by asymmetric vorticity distribution in rapidly rotating thermal convection
Shan-Shan Ding, Kai Leong Chong, Jun-Qiang Shi +4
In rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection, columnar vortices advect horizontally in a stochastic manner. When the centrifugal buoyancy is present the vortices exhibit radial motions t…
Crossover from ballistic to diffusive vortex motion in convection
Kai Leong Chong, Jun-Qiang Shi, Shanshan Ding +4
Vortices play an unique role in heat and momentum transports in astro- and geo-physics, and it is also the origin of the Earth's dynamo. A question existing for a long time is whet…
