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 …

The properties of the structure functions and other small-scale quantities in turbulent
Rayleigh-Bénard convection are reviewed, from an experimental, theoretical, and numerical …

We present a numerical scheme geared for high performance computation of wall-bounded
turbulent flows. The number of all-to-all communications is decreased to only six instances …

We present global and local statistical properties of turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard (RB)
convection at low Prandtl numbers in this work. A series of high resolution two-dimensional …

Results from direct numerical simulation (DNS) for three-dimensional Rayleigh–Bénard
convection in a cylindrical cell of aspect ratio 1/2 and Prandtl number Pr= 0.7 are presented …

Hydrodynamic flows exhibit turbulent behaviour which is not well understood till date. When
a fluid is in a gravitational field, the flow becomes even more complex due to the gravity …

The system of turbulent thermal convection is introduced. Progresses in recent decades in
the four major areas of research in turbulent convection are briefly reviewed. Some of the …

Combined measurements of velocity components and temperature in a turbulent Rayleigh–
Bénard convection flow at a low Prandtl number of are conducted in a series of experiments …

For rapidly rotating turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection in a slender cylindrical cell,
experiments and direct numerical simulations reveal a boundary zonal flow (BZF) that …

In this paper, we describe the recent developments in thefield of buoyancy-driven turbulence
with a focus on energy spectrum andflux. Scaling and numerical arguments show that the …
