Convection in a spherical shell is widely used to model fluid layers of planets and stars. The choice of thermal boundary conditions in such models is not always straightforward. To understand the implications of this choice, we report on…
Moist convection is a physical process where the latent heat released by condensation acts as a buoyancy source that can enhance or even trigger an overturning convective instability. Since the saturation temperature often decreases with…
A challenge in fundamental physics and especially in thermodynamics is to understand emergent order in far-from-equilibrium systems. While at equilibrium, temperature plays the role of a key thermodynamic variable whose uniformity in space…
Rayleigh-Benard convection (RBC) is a canonical system for buoyancy-driven turbulence and heat transport, central to geophysical and industrial flows. Developing efficient control strategies remains challenging at high Rayleigh numbers,…
Turbulent thermal convection is characterized by the formation of large-scale structures and strong spatial inhomogeneity. This work addresses the relative heat transport contributions of the large-scale plume ejecting versus plume…
We present an experimental study of Rayleigh-B\'enard convection using liquid metal alloy gallium-indium-tin as the working fluid with a Prandtl number of $Pr=0.029$. The flow state and the heat transport were measured in a Rayleigh number…
Granular flows down inclined channels with smooth boundaries are common in nature and in the industry. Nevertheless, the common setup of flat boundaries has comparatively been much less investigated than the bumpy boundaries one, which is…
We show, using direct numerical simulations with experimentally realizable boundary conditions, that wall modes in Rayleigh-B\'enard convection in a rapidly rotating cylinder persist even very far from their linear onset. These nonlinear…
A novel phase field method is proposed to model the continuous transition of binary fluids exhibiting temperature sensitive miscibility gap, from immiscible state to miscible state via partially miscible states. The model is employed to…
Direct numerical simulations are performed to study turbulent Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection in a vertical cylindrical cavity with uniform axial magnetic field. Flows at high Hartmann and Rayleigh numbers are considered. The calculations…
In a range of physical systems, the first instability in Rayleigh-Bernard convection between nearly thermally insulating horizontal plates is large scale. This holds for thermal convection of fluids saturating porous media. Large-scale…
We investigate theoretically the nonlinear state of ideal straight rolls in the Rayleigh-B\'enard system of a fluid layer heated from below with a porous medium using a Galerkin method. Applying the Oberbeck-Boussinesq approximation, binary…
Direct numerical simulations are carried out to study flow structure and transport properties in turbulent Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection in a cylindrical cell of aspect ratio one with an imposed axial magnetic field. Flows at the Prandtl…
We present three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard convection (RBC) in the Lagrangian frame of reference for Rayleigh numbers $10^5 \leq Ra \leq 10^{10}$ and a Prandtl number $Pr=0.7$ in a plane layer…
We study experimentally and theoretically transition phenomena caused by the external forcing from Rayleigh-Benard convection with the large-scale circulation (LSC) to the limiting regime of unstably stratified turbulent flow without LSC…
Pattern formation in Rayleigh-Benard convection in a large-aspect-ratio cylinder with a radial ramp in the plate separation is studied analytically and numerically by performing numerical simulations of the Boussinesq equations. A…
Horizontally-periodic Boussinesq Rayleigh-B\'enard Convection (RBC) is a simple model system to study the formation of large-scale structures in turbulent convective flows. We performed a suite of 2D numerical simulations of RBC between…
This paper studies the dynamics of an incompressible fluid driven by gravity and capillarity forces in a porous medium. The main interest is the stabilization of the fluid in Rayleigh-Taylor unstable situations where the fluid lays on top…
Thermally driven emulsions arise in a broad range of natural and industrial contexts, yet their fundamental physical understanding remains only partially established. Emulsions exhibit a complex, concentration-dependent rheology, ranging…
We assess experimentally the scaling laws that characterize the mixing region produced by the Rayleigh-Taylor instability in a confined porous medium. In particular, we wish to assess experimentally the existence of a superlinear scaling…
