Prandtl and Rayleigh number dependence of heat transport in high Rayleigh number thermal convection [PDF]
Results from direct numerical simulation for three-dimensional Rayleigh–Bénard convection in samples of aspect ratio $\Gamma = 0. 23$ and $\Gamma = 1/ 2$ up to Rayleigh number $\mathit{Ra}= 2\ensuremath{\times} 1{0}^{12} $ are presented.

Reversals in infinite-Prandtl-number Rayleigh-B\'enard convection [PDF]
Using direct numerical simulations, we study the statistical properties of reversals in two-dimensional Rayleigh-B\'enard convection for infinite Prandtl number. We find that the large-scale circulation reverses irregularly, with the waiting time between

Magneto-bio-thermal Convection in Rotating Nanoliquid containing Gyrotactic Microorganism [PDF]
The magneto-convection influenced by a gyrotactic behavior of algal suspensions along with rotation in the nanoliquid layer is investigated. Linear theory based on normal mode analysis is used to find out the inquisitive results of the problem for rigid ...

High Rayleigh number variational multiscale large eddy simulations of Rayleigh-Bénard convection [PDF]
The variational multiscale (VMS) formulation is used to develop residual-based VMS large eddy simulation (LES) models for Rayleigh-B nard convection. The resulting model is a mixed model that incorporates the VMS model and an eddy viscosity model. The Wall-Adapting Local Eddy-viscosity (WALE) model is used as the eddy viscosity model in this work. The

One of the practical methods for examining the stability and dynamical behaviour of non-linear systems is weakly non-linear stability analysis. Time-varying gravitational acceleration and triple-diffusive convection play a significant role in the ...

Critical Rayleigh number in Rayleigh-Bénard convection [PDF]
Summary: The Rayleigh-Bénard convection is a classical problem in fluid dynamics. In the presence of rigid boundary condition, we identify the critical Rayleigh number \( R_{a}^{\ast }\) by a reduced variational problem. We prove nonlinear asymptotic stability for motionless steady states for \( R_{a}R_{a}^{\ast }.\) The dynamic of such instability is ...

Large-eddy simulation of Rayleigh–Bénard convection at extreme Rayleigh numbers
We adopt the stretched spiral vortex sub-grid model for large-eddy simulation (LES) of turbulent convection at extreme Rayleigh numbers. We simulate Rayleigh–Bénard convection (RBC) for Rayleigh numbers ranging from 106 to 1015 and for Prandtl numbers 0.768 and 1. We choose a box of dimensions 1:1:10 to reduce computational cost. Our LES yields Nusselt

Prandtl and Rayleigh numbers dependences in Rayleigh-Bénard convection [PDF]
Using low-temperature gaseous helium close to the critical point, we investigate the Prandtl-number dependence of the effective heat conductivity (Nusselt number) for a 1/2 aspect ratio Rayleigh-Benard cell. Very weak dependence is observed in the range 0.7 < Pr < 21; 2 × 108 < Ra < 2 × 1010: the absolute value of the average logarithmic slope δ = (∂ln
