Using numerical simulations of rapidly rotating Boussinesq convection in a Cartesian box,
we study the formation of long-lived, large-scale, depth-invariant coherent structures. These …

One of the most prominent dynamical features of turbulent, rapidly rotating convection is the
formation of large-scale coherent structures, driven by Reynolds stresses resulting from the …

In this paper, we present numerical simulations of rapidly rotating Rayleigh-Bénard
convection in the Boussinesq approximation with stress-free boundary conditions. At …

We report on the influence of rotation about a vertical axis on the large-scale circulation
(LSC) of turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection in a cylindrical vessel with aspect ratio …

For rotationally constrained convection, the Taylor–Proudman theorem enforces an
organization of nonlinear flows into tall columnar or compact plume structures. While …

We present optical shadowgraph flow visualization and heat transport measurements of
Rayleigh–Bénard convection with rotation about a vertical axis. The fluid, water with Prandtl …

We investigate the flow patterns in a cylindrical rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection cell
with radius-to-height ratio Γ= 0.5. The Rayleigh number R is 2× 108, the dimensionless …

We perform direct numerical simulations of rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection (RRBC) of
fluids with low (Pr= 0.1) and high (Pr≈ 5) Prandtl numbers in a horizontally periodic layer …

Turbulent Boussinesq convection under the influence of rapid rotation (ie with comparable
characteristic rotation and convection timescales) is studied. The transition to turbulence …

The force balance of rotating Rayleigh–Bénard convection regimes is investigated using
direct numerical simulation on a laterally periodic domain, vertically bounded by no-slip …
