Many flows in nature and technology are driven by buoyant convection and subsequently
modulated by rotation. Typical and highly relevant examples are found in the large-scale …

We present experimental measurements of velocity and temperature fields in horizontal
planes crossing a cylindrical Rayleigh–Bénard convection cell in steady rotation about its …

The effects of an axial rotation on the turbulent convective flow because of an adverse
temperature gradient in a water-filled upright cylindrical vessel are investigated. Both direct …

Global differences of temperature and buoyancy flux at the ocean surface are responsible
for small-scale convection at high latitudes, global overturning, and the top-to-bottom density …

The influence of rotation on turbulent convection is investigated with direct numerical
simulation. The classical Rayleigh-Bénard configuration is augmented with steady rotation …

Numerical experiments are presented which explore the dependence of the scale and
intensity of convective elements in a rotating fluid on variations in external parameters in a …

Recent studies of rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection at high rotation rates and strong
thermal forcing have shown a significant discrepancy in total heat transport between …

Numerical simulations of rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection are presented for both no slip
and free slip boundaries. The goal is to find a criterion distinguishing convective flows …

Rotating convection in cylindrical containers is a canonical problem in fluid dynamics, in
which a variety of simplifying assumptions have been used in order to allow for low …

Turbulent rotating convection is usually studied in a cylindrical geometry, as this is its most
convenient experimental realization. In our previous work (Kunnen et al., J. Fluid Mech., vol …
