The energy flux spectrum of internal waves generated by turbulent convection
Louis-Alexandre Couston, Daniel Lecoanet, Benjamin Favier +1
We present three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of internal waves excited by turbulent convection in a self-consistent, Boussinesq and Cartesian model of convective--stab…

Order Out of Chaos: Slowly Reversing Mean Flows Emerge from Turbulently Generated Internal Waves
Louis-Alexandre Couston, Daniel Lecoanet, Benjamin Favier +1
We demonstrate via direct numerical simulations that a periodic, oscillating mean flow spontaneously develops from turbulently generated internal waves. We consider a minimal physi…
