Fluids subject to both thermal and compositional variations can undergo doubly diffusive convection when these properties both affect the fluid density and diffuse at different rates. In natural doubly diffusive convection, the gradients of…
Many environmental flows arise due to natural convection at a vertical surface, from flows in buildings to dissolving ice faces at marine-terminating glaciers. We use three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of a vertical channel with…
Penetrative turbulence, which occurs in a convectively unstable fluid layer and penetrates into an adjacent, originally stably stratified layer, is numerically and theoretically analyzed. We chose the most relevant example, namely thermally…
We investigate the large-scale circulation (LSC) in a turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard convection flow in a cubic closed convection cell by means of direct numerical simulations at a Rayleigh number $Ra=10^6$. The numerical studies are conducted…
Buoyancy-induced (Rayleigh-Benard) convection of a fluid between two horizontal plates is a central paradigm for studying the transition to complex spatiotemporal dynamics in sustained nonequilibrium systems. To improve the analysis of…
Double-diffusive convection driven by both thermal and compositional buoyancy in a rotating cylindrical annulus with conical caps is considered with the aim to establish whether a small fraction of compositional buoyancy added to the…
We propose a phenomenological model for thermal convection at high Rayleigh numbers. It hypothesizes existence of a high-Reynolds-number turbulent boundary layer near each horizontal plate, which is shown to be convective. The convective…
The paper is devoted to two-phase flow simulations and investigates the ability of a diffusive interface Cahn-Hilliard Volume-of-Fluid model to capture the dynamics of the air-sea interface at geophysically relevant Reynolds numbers. It…
We analyze the reversals of the large scale flow in Rayleigh-B\'enard convection both through particle image velocimetry flow visualization and direct numerical simulations (DNS) of the underlying Boussinesq equations in a (quasi)…
We investigate the effect of dispersion on convection in porous media by performing direct numerical simulations (DNS) in a two-dimensional Rayleigh-Darcy domain. Scaling analysis of the governing equations shows that the dynamics of this…
The heat transfer behavior of convection-driven dynamos in a rotating plane layer between two parallel plates, heated from below and cooled from the top, is investigated. At a fixed rotation rate (Ekman Number, $E=10^{-6}$) and fluid…
By utilizing diffusion maps embedding and transition matrix analysis we investigate sparse temperature measurement time-series data from Rayleigh--B\'enard convection experiments in a cylindrical container of aspect ratio $\Gamma=D/L=0.5$…
We develop a two-fluid model (TFM) for heat transfer in dense non-Brownian suspensions. Specifically, we propose closure relations for the inter-phase heat transfer coefficient and the thermal diffusivity of the particle phase based on…
In this numerical study on two-dimensional Rayleigh-B\'enard convection we consider $10^7 \leq Ra \leq 10^{12}$ in aspect ratio $0.23 \leq \Gamma \leq 13$ samples. We focus on several cases. First we consider small aspect ratio cells, where…
In this study we consider the effect of a horizontal magnetic field on the Rayleigh-B\'enard convection in a finite liquid metal layer contained in a cuboid vessel (200 \times 200 \times 40 mm^3). Laboratory experiments are performed for…
We consider the two-dimensional Rayeigh-B\'enard convection problem between Navier-slip fixed-temperature boundary conditions and present a new upper bound for the Nusselt number. The result, based on a localization principle for the…
We analyze experimental data on double diffusive convection in an electrochemical cell in the finger regime. All fingers in the experiments are bounded on at least one end by a solid wall. The properties of these fingers are compared with…
We study heat transfer in plane Couette flow laden with rigid spherical particles by means of direct numerical simulations using a direct-forcing immersed boundary method to account for the dispersed phase. A volume of fluid approach is…
The convective heat transfer and flow behavior of graphene-water nanofluids are studied experimentally by focusing on transitional flow. Graphene-water nanofluids with different particle mass fractions (0.025, 0.1 and 0.2%) are produced…
We study the stability of two-fluid flow through a plane channel at Reynolds numbers of a hundred to a thousand in the linear and nonlinear regimes. The two fluids have the same density but different viscosities. The fluids, when miscible,…
