Local temperature measurements in turbulent rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
We present local temperature measurements of turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection with rotation about a vertical axis. The fluid, water with Prandtl number about 6, was confined in a cell with a square cross section of 7.3×7.3 cm(2) and a height of 9.4 cm. Temperature fluctuations and boundary-layer profiles were measured for Rayleigh numbers 1×10(7)<Ra<5×10(8) and Taylor numbers 0<Ta<5×10(9). ...
متن کاملHeat transport measurements in turbulent rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
We present experimental heat transport measurements of turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection with rotation about a vertical axis. The fluid, water with a Prandtl number (sigma) of about 6, was confined in a cell with a square cross section of 7.3 x 7.3 cm2 and a height of 9.4 cm. Heat transport was measured for Rayleigh numbers 2 x 10(5)<Ra<5 x 10(8) and Taylor numbers 0<Ta<5 x 10(9). We show th...
متن کاملHeat-transport enhancement in rotating turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
We present new Nusselt-number (Nu) measurements for slowly rotating turbulent thermal convection in cylindrical samples with aspect ratio Γ=1.00 and provide a comprehensive correlation of all available data for that Γ. In the experiment compressed gasses (nitrogen and sulfur hexafluride) as well as the fluorocarbon C_{6}F_{14} (3M Fluorinert FC72) and isopropanol were used as the convecting flu...
متن کاملMultiple transitions in rotating turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
Sometimes it is thought that sharp transitions between potentially different turbulent states should be washed out by the prevailing intense fluctuations and short coherence lengths and times. Contrary to this expectation, we found a sequence of such transitions in turbulent rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection as the rotation rate was increased. This phenomenon was observed in cylindrical sampl...
متن کاملTransitions between turbulent states in rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
Weakly rotating turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection was studied experimentally and numerically. With increasing rotation and large enough Rayleigh number a supercritical bifurcation from a turbulent state with nearly rotation-independent heat transport to another with enhanced heat transfer is observed at a critical inverse Rossby number 1/Roc approximately 0.4. The strength of the large-scale...
