Traveling waves in rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
A combined analytical, numerical, and experimental study of the traveling-wave wall mode in rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection is presented. No-slip top and bottom boundary conditions are used for the numerical computation of the linear stability, and the coefficients of the linear complex Ginzburg-Landau equation are then computed for various rotation rates. Numerical results for the no-slip ...
متن کاملScaling laws for rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
Numerical simulations of large aspect ratio, three-dimensional rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection for no-slip boundary conditions have been performed in both cylinders and periodic boxes. We have focused near the threshold for the supercritical bifurcation from the conducting state to a convecting state exhibiting domain chaos. A detailed analysis of these simulations has been carried out and ...
متن کاملOscillating large-scale circulation in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
We report on the dynamics and structure of the turbulent velocity field in a high-Rayleigh-number (Ra = 5.9 x 10(8))thermal convection cell with an aspect ratio of 4. Spectral density functions (measured with laser Doppler velocimetry) indicated the existence of a large-scale periodic component. The long-time mean flow field (measured with particle image velocimetry) revealed that the large-sca...
متن کاملDynamics of large-scale quantities in Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
In this paper we estimate the relative strengths of various terms of the Rayleigh-Bénard equations. Based on these estimates and scaling analysis, we derive a general formula for the large-scale velocity U or the Péclet number that is applicable for arbitrary Rayleigh number Ra and Prandtl number Pr. Our formula fits reasonably well with the earlier simulation and experimental results. Our anal...
متن کاملLarge-scale circulation model for turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
A model for the large-scale-circulation (LSC) of turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection in cylindrical samples is presented. It consists of two physically motivated stochastic ordinary differential equations, one each for the strength and the azimuthal orientation of the LSC. Stochastic forces represent phenomenologically the influence of turbulent fluctuations. Consistent with measurements, the ...
