Flow states and heat transport in Rayleigh--Bénard convection with different sidewall boundary conditions

Philipp Reiter, Xuan Zhang, Olga Shiskina

This work addresses the effects of different thermal sidewall boundary conditions on the formation of flow states and heat transport in two- and three-dimensional Rayleigh--Bénard…

Connecting wall modes and boundary zonal flows in rotating Rayleigh--Bénard convection

Robert E. Ecke, Xuan Zhang, Olga Shishkina

Using direct numerical simulations, we study rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection in a cylindrical cell for a broad range of Rayleigh, Ekman, and Prandtl numbers from the onset of w…

Crossover of the relative heat transport contributions of plume ejecting and impacting zones in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection

Philipp Reiter, Olga Shishkina, Detlef Lohse +1

Turbulent thermal convection is characterized by the formation of large-scale structures and strong spatial inhomogeneity. This work addresses the relative heat transport contribut…

Universal properties of penetrative turbulent Rayleigh--Bénard convection in cold water near

Qi Wang, Philipp Reiter, Detlef Lohse +1

Penetrative turbulence, which occurs in a convectively unstable fluid layer and penetrates into an adjacent, originally stably stratified layer, is numerically and theoretically an…

Regime transitions in thermally driven high-Rayleigh number vertical convection

Qi Wang, Hao-Ran Liu, Roberto Verzicco +2

Vertical convection is investigated using direct numerical simulations over a wide range of Rayleigh numbers with fixed Prandtl number , in a two-dime…

Scaling in internally heated convection: a unifying theory

Qi Wang, Detlef Lohse, Olga Shishkina

We offer a unifying theory for turbulent purely internally heated convection, generalizing the unifying theories of Grossmann and Lohse (2000, 2001) for Rayleigh--Bénard turbulence…
