Mean temperature profiles in turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection of water
We report an investigation of temperature profiles in turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection of water based on direct numerical simulations (DNS) for a cylindrical cell with unit aspect ratio for the same Prandtl number Pr and similar Rayleigh numbers Ra as used in recent high-precision measurements by Funfschilling et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 536, 2005, p. 145). The Nusselt numbers Nu computed ...
متن کاملFluctuation dynamo and turbulent induction at low magnetic Prandtl numbers
This paper is a detailed report on a programme of direct numerical simulations of incompressible nonhelical randomly forced MHD turbulence that are used to settle a long-standing issue in the turbulent dynamo theory and demonstrate that the fluctuation dynamo exists in the limit of large magnetic Reynolds number Rm ≫ 1 and small magnetic Prandtl number Pm ≪ 1. The dependence of the critical Rmc...
متن کاملOn the nature of fluctuations in turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection at large Prandtl numbers
We report experimental results for the power spectra, variance, skewness and kurtosis of temperature fluctuations in turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection (RBC) of a fluid with Prandtl number Pr= 12.3 in cylindrical samples with aspect ratios Γ (diameter D over height L) of 0.50 and 1.00. The measurements were primarily for the radial positions ξ = 1− r/(D/2)= 1.00 and ξ = 0.063. In both cases, ...
متن کاملThe Anisotropy of Low Prandtl Number Turbulent Convection
A model for homogeneous anisotropic incompressible turbulence is proposed. The model generalizes the GISS model of homogeneous isotropic turbulence; the generalization involves the solution of the GISS equations along a set of integration paths in wavenumber (k-) space. In order to make the problem tractable, these integration paths (“cascade lines”) must be chosen in such a way that the behavi...
