Rapidly rotating Rayleigh-B\'enard convection is studied by combining results from direct numerical simulations (DNS), laboratory experiments and asymptotic modeling. The asymptotic theory is shown to provide a good description of the bulk…
Gravity-driven convection of fluid at parameters near its thermodynamic critical point inside a porous layer heated from below (Rayleigh-Darcy convection) is studied. The fluid having the temperature slightly above the critical one is…
We study the connection between extreme events of thermal and kinetic energy dissipation rates in the bulk of three-dimensional Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection and the wall shear stress patterns at the top and the bottom planes that enclose…
We perform a bifurcation analysis of the steady states of Rayleigh--B\'enard convection with no-slip boundary conditions in two dimensions using a numerical method called deflated continuation. By combining this method with an…
In most results concerning bounds on the heat transport in the Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection problem no-slip boundary conditions for the velocity field are assumed. Nevertheless it is debatable, whether these boundary conditions reflect…
We revisit the optimal heat transport problem for Rayleigh-B\'enard convection in which a rigorous upper bound on the Nusselt number, $Nu$, is sought as a function of the Rayleigh number $Ra$. Concentrating on the 2-dimensional problem with…
A series of direct numerical simulations of Rayleigh-B\'enard convection, the flow in a fluid layer heated from below and cooled from above, were conducted to investigate the effect of mixed insulating and conducting boundary conditions on…
Rapidly rotating Rayleigh-B\'enard convection on a $f$-plane at colatitude $\vartheta_f$ is investigated numerically using an asymptotically reduced equation set valid in the limit of very rapid rotation. The equations provide a…
A theoretical analysis is carried out to study flow evolution inside the laminar Rayleigh-B\'enard convection system laden with small particles. By describing particle dynamics and particle heat as sources of drag and heat respectively, the…
This work addresses the effects of different thermal sidewall boundary conditions on the formation of flow states and heat transport in two- and three-dimensional Rayleigh--B\'enard convection (RBC) by means of direct numerical simulations…
The dissolution of solids has created spectacular geomorphologies ranging from centimeter-scale cave scallops to the kilometer-scale "stone forests" of China and Madagascar. Mathematically, dissolution processes are modeled by a Stefan…
Rayleigh-B{\'e}nard convection is investigated with sulfur hexafluoride (SF$_6$) in the vicinity of its critical point. In the supercritical domain, direct measurements of the heat flux $Q$ as a function of the temperature difference…
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…
The possible transition to the so-called ultimate regime, wherein both the bulk and the boundary layers are turbulent, has been an outstanding issue in thermal convection, since the seminal work by Kraichnan [Phys. Fluids 5, 1374 (1962)].…
We present three results on stability of rolls in Boussinesq convection in a plane horizontal layer with rigid boundaries that is rotating about an inclined axis with the angular velocity $\Omega=(\Omega_1,\Omega_2,\Omega_3)$. i. We call…
Combined measurements of velocity components and temperature in a turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard convection flow at a low Prandtl number of $\mathit{Pr}= 0.029$ and Rayleigh numbers between $10^6 \le \mathit{Ra} \le 6 \times 10^7$ are…
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…
A statistical-mechanical investigation is performed on Rayleigh-B\'enard convection of a dilute classical gas starting from the Boltzmann equation. We first present a microscopic derivation of basic hydrodynamic equations and an expression…
We are concerned with infinite Prandtl number Rayleigh--B\'enard convection with Navier-slip boundary conditions. The goal of this work is to estimate the average upward heat flux measured by the nondimensional Nusselt number $Nu$ in terms…
The effects of a dispersed particulate phase on the onset of Rayleigh-B\'enard convection in a fluid layer is studied theoretically by means of a two-fluid Eulerian modelization. The particles are non-Brownian, spherical, with inertia and…
