Horizontal convection is non-turbulent

F Paparella, WR Young - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2002 - cambridge.org
Consider the problem of horizontal convection: a Boussinesq fluid, forced by applying a non-
uniform temperature at its top surface, with all other boundaries insulating. We prove that if …

[引用][C] Infinite Prandtl number turbulent convection

SK Chan - Studies in Applied Mathematics, 1971 - Wiley Online Library
The main theme of this study concerns the phenomenon of thermal turbulence for a
horizontally infinite layer offluid heated from below. In particular, the bounding surfaces are …

Non-Boussinesq effect: Thermal convection with broken symmetry

J Zhang, S Childress, A Libchaber - Physics of FLUIDS, 1997 - pubs.aip.org
The classical problem of Rayleigh-Bénard convection is often considered in the Boussinesq
approximation: a fluid of constant material properties is assumed, except for a variable …

Bounds on horizontal convection

JH Siggers, RR Kerswell, NJ Balmforth - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2004 - cambridge.org
For a fluid layer heated and cooled differentially at its surface, we use a variational approach
to place bounds on the viscous dissipation rate and a horizontal Nusselt measure based on …

Scaling in internally heated convection: a unifying theory

Q Wang, D Lohse, O Shishkina - Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
We offer a unifying theory for turbulent, purely internally heated convection, generalizing the
unifying theories of Grossmann and Lohse (2000, https://doi. org/10.1017 …

Very viscous horizontal convection

S Chiu-Webster, EJ Hinch, JR Lister - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2008 - cambridge.org
'Horizontal convection'arises when a temperature variation is imposed along a horizontal
boundary of a finite fluid volume. Here we study the infinite-Prandtl-number limit relevant to …

On upper bounds for infinite Prandtl number convection with or without rotation

CR Doering, P Constantin - Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2001 - pubs.aip.org
Rayleigh–Benard convection, where a fluid layer heated from below produces an instability
leading to convective fluid motions, has played a central role in both the experimental and …

Transition to turbulence in Rayleigh-Beénard convection

FH Busse - Hydrodynamic instabilities and the transition to …, 2005 - Springer
The present knowledge of convection in a layer heated from below is reviewed in this
chapter with emphasis on those properties that provide some insights into the general …

Horizontal convection

GO Hughes, RW Griffiths - Annu. Rev. Fluid Mech., 2008 - annualreviews.org
Differential heating along one horizontal boundary of a fluid-filled volume establishes an
overturning circulation (horizontal convection) in the volume. The governing dynamics in this …

Thermal convection with strongly temperature-dependent viscosity

JR Booker - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 1976 - cambridge.org
This paper experimentally investigates the heat transport and structure of convection in a
high Prandtl number fluid layer whose viscosity varies by up to a factor of 300 between the …
