Turbulent Compressible Convection with Rotation - Penetration above a Convection Zone
We perform Large eddy simulations of turbulent compressible convection in stellar-type convection zones by solving the Naviér-Stokes equations in three dimensions. We estimate the extent of penetration into the stable layer above a stellar-type convection zone by varying the rotation rate (Ω), the inclination of the rotation vector (θ) and the relative stability (S) of the upper stable layer Th...
متن کامل3-D Simulations of Turbulent Compressible Convection
Three{dimensional simulations of turbulent and fully compressible thermal convection in deep atmospheres are presented and analyzed in terms of velocity power spectra, mixing{length theory, and production of vorticity. Density contrasts across these convective layers are typically around 11. The uid model is that of an ideal gas with a constant thermal conductivity. The Piecewise-Parabolic Meth...
متن کاملEfficient Turbulent Compressible Convection in the Deep Stellar Atmosphere
This paper reports an application of gas-kinetic BGK scheme to the computation of turbulent compressible convection in the stellar interior. After incorporating the Subgrid Scale (SGS) turbulence model into the BGK scheme, we tested the effects of numerical parameters on the quantitative relationships among the thermodynamic variables, their fluctuations and correlations in a very deep, initial...
متن کاملTurbulent convection and differential rotation in spherical shells
Rotation is a general phenomenon in astrophysical systems on scales from planets to giant galaxy clusters. It is established during the formation of the system under gravitational compression. Typically the rotation rate is greatly enhanced during this process (Thompson et al. 2003). Rotation of stars defines their shapes and drives the internal circulation which redistributes chemical elements...
متن کاملEffect of heat flux on differential rotation in turbulent convection.
We studied the effect of the turbulent heat flux on the Reynolds stresses in a rotating turbulent convection. To this end we solved a coupled system of dynamical equations which includes the equations for the Reynolds stresses, the entropy fluctuations, and the turbulent heat flux. We used a spectral tau approximation in order to close the system of dynamical equations. We found that the ratio ...
