Turbulent convection in the interiors of the Sun and the Earth occurs at high Rayleigh numbers $Ra$, low Prandtl numbers $Pr$, and different levels of rotation rates. To understand the combined effects better, we study rotating turbulent…
We conduct direct numerical simulations for turbulent Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard (RB) convection, driven simultaneously by two scalar components (say, temperature and salt concentration) with different molecular diffusivities, and measure the…
A systematic theory for the scaling of the Nusselt number $Nu$ and of the Reynolds number $Re$ in strong Rayleigh-Benard convection is suggested and shown to be compatible with recent experiments. It assumes a coherent large scale…
Results from direct numerical simulation for three-dimensional Rayleigh-B\'enard convection in samples of aspect ratio $\Gamma=0.23$ and $\Gamma=0.5$ up to Rayleigh number $Ra=2\times10^{12}$ are presented. The broad range of Prandtl…
(abridged) Context: The ratio of kinematic viscosity to thermal diffusivity, the Prandtl number, is much smaller than unity in stellar convection zones. Aims: To study the statistics of convective flows and energy transport as functions of…
Vertical convection is investigated using direct numerical simulations over a wide range of Rayleigh numbers $10^7\le Ra\le10^{14}$ with fixed Prandtl number $Pr=10$, in a two-dimensional convection cell with unit aspect ratio. It is found…
We perform a numerical study of the heat transfer and flow structure of Rayleigh-B\'enard (RB) convection in (in most cases regular) porous media, which are comprised of circular, solid obstacles located on a square lattice. This study is…
An investigation of the effect of a destabilizing cross-stream temperature gradient on the transient growth phenomenon of plane Poiseuille flow and plane Couette flow is presented. Only the streamwise-uniform and nearly streamwise-uniform…
Large-scale patterns, which are well-known from the spiral defect chaos regime of thermal convection at Rayleigh numbers $Ra < 10^4$, continue to exist in three-dimensional numerical simulations of turbulent Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection…
This study numerically investigates two-dimensional Rayleigh-Benard convection subjected to horizontal oscillation of the bottom plate, with Prandtl number Pr=4.3, Rayleigh numbers Ra ranging from 5e6 to 1e8, and oscillation frequencies f…
Vertical convection is the fluid motion that is induced by the heating and cooling of two opposed vertical boundaries of a rectangular cavity (see e.g. Wang et al. 2021). We consider the linear stability of the steady two-dimensional flow…
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…
Heat transport in highly turbulent convection is not well understood. In this paper, we simulate compressible convection in a box of aspect ratio 4 using computationally-efficient MacCormack-TVD finite difference method on single and…
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…
Quasi-static Rayleigh-B\'enard convection with an imposed horizontal magnetic field is investigated numerically for Chandrasekhar numbers up to $Q=10^6$ with stress free boundary conditions. Both $Q$ and the Rayleigh number ($Ra$) are…
Rayleigh-B\'enard convection under an imposed inductionless magnetic field is analysed statistically from the perspective of single-point and multi-scale energy budgets. The data is obtained from direct numerical simulations with a Rayleigh…
Two-dimensional horizontally periodic Rayleigh-B\'enard convection between stress-free boundaries displays two distinct types of states, depending on the initial conditions. Roll states are composed of pairs of counter-rotating convection…
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…
Two hybrid quantum-classical reservoir computing models are presented to reproduce low-order statistical properties of a two-dimensional turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard convection flow at a Rayleigh number Ra=1e+5 and a Prandtl number Pr=10.…
This study explores heat and turbulent modulation in three-dimensional multiphase Rayleigh-B\'enard convection using direct numerical simulations. Two immiscible fluids with identical reference density undergo systematic variations in…
