Large Eddy Simulation of turbulent thermal convection using a Mixed Scale Diffusivity Model
The Mixed Scale Diffusivity Model, originally developed in the case of the differentially heated cavity, is applied to compute turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard flow in an infinite fluid layer at Pr = 0.71 for a large range of Rayleigh numbers (6.3 × 10 – 2 × 10). The effect of this SGS modelling, which adjusts locally the SGS diffusivity to the thermal scales of the flow and results in variable PrSGS ...
متن کاملRare fluctuations and large-scale circulation cessations in turbulent convection.
In turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection, a large-scale circulation (LSC) develops in a nearly vertical plane and is maintained by rising and falling plumes detaching from the unstable thermal boundary layers. Rare but large fluctuations in the LSC amplitude can lead to extinction of the LSC (a cessation event), followed by the reemergence of another LSC with a different (random) azimuthal orien...
متن کاملHeat transfer & large-scale dynamics in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection
The progress in our understanding of several aspects of turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection is reviewed. The focus is on the question of how the Nusselt number and the Reynolds number depend on the Rayleigh number Ra and the Prandtl number Pr, and on how the thicknesses of the thermal and the kinetic boundary layers scale with Ra and Pr. Non-Oberbeck-Boussinesq effects and the dynamics of the ...
متن کاملFormation of large-scale semiorganized structures in turbulent convection.
A new mean-field theory of turbulent convection is developed by considering only the small-scale part of spectra as "turbulence" and the large-scale part, as a "mean flow," which includes both regular and semiorganized motions. The developed theory predicts the convective wind instability in a shear-free turbulent convection. This instability causes formation of large-scale semiorganized fluid ...
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...
