Data-driven flow control has significant potential for industry, energy systems, and climate science. In this work, we study the effectiveness of Reinforcement Learning (RL) for reducing convective heat transfer in the 2D Rayleigh-B\'enard…
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,…
Rayleigh-B\'enard convection (RBC) is a recurrent phenomenon in several industrial and geoscience flows and a well-studied system from a fundamental fluid-mechanics viewpoint. However, controlling RBC, for example by modulating the spatial…
Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) has found application in numerous use-cases pertaining to flow control. Multi-agent RL (MARL), a variant of DRL, has shown to be more effective than single-agent RL in controlling flows exhibiting locality…
Chaotic convective flows arise in many real-world systems, such as microfluidic devices and chemical reactors. Stabilizing these flows is highly desirable but remains challenging, particularly in chaotic regimes where conventional control…
In Rayleigh-B\'enard convection, it has been found that the amount of heat passing through the fluid has a power law dependence on the imposed temperature difference. Modifying this dependence, either enhancing or reducing the heat transfer…
The dynamics of heat transfer in a model system of Rayleigh-B\'enard (RB) convection reduced to its essential, here dubbed Burgers-Rayleigh-B\'enard (BRB), is studied. The system is spatially one-dimensional, the flow field is compressible…
We investigate by direct numerical simulation Rayleigh-B\'enard convection in a rotating rectangular cell with rotation vector and gravity perpendicular to each other. The flow is two dimensional near the onset of convection with convection…

We study the navigation of a self-propelled inertial particle in two-dimensional Rayleigh--B\'enard convection at Prandtl number $Pr = 0.71$ and cell aspect ratio $\Gamma = 4$ for Rayleigh numbers $Ra$ ranging from $10^{7}$ to $10^{11}$. A…
Rayleigh-B\'enard cells are one of the simplest systems to explore the laws of natural convection in the highly turbulent limit. However, at very high Rayleigh numbers (Ra > 1E12) and for Prandtl numbers of order one, experiments fall into…
We report the results of high resolution direct numerical simulations of two-dimensional Rayleigh-B\'enard convection for Rayleigh numbers up to $\Ra=10^{10}$ in order to study the influence of temperature boundary conditions on turbulent…
We investigate the dynamics of a fluid layer subject to an imposed bottom heat flux and a top monotonically-increasing temperature profile driving horizontal convection. We use direct numerical simulations and consider a large range of…
Previous numerical studies have shown that the "ultimate regime of thermal convection" can be attained in a Rayleigh-Benard cell when the kinetic and thermal boundary layers are eliminated by replacing the walls with periodic boundary…
Reinforcement learning (RL) techniques have been developed to optimize industrial cooling systems, offering substantial energy savings compared to traditional heuristic policies. A major challenge in industrial control involves learning…
Many natural and engineering systems are simultaneously subjected to a driving force and a stabilizing force. The interplay between the two forces, especially for highly nonlinear systems such as fluid flow, often results in surprising…
Rayleigh-B\'enard convection is numerically simulated in two- and three-dimensions using a recently developed two-component lattice Boltzmann equation (LBE) method. The density field of the second component, which evolves according to the…
The central open question about Rayleigh--B\'enard convection -- buoyancy-driven flow in a fluid layer heated from below and cooled from above -- is how vertical heat flux depends on the imposed temperature gradient in the strongly…
We investigate the stability and dynamics of natural convection in two dimensions, subject to inhomogeneous boundary conditions. In particular, we consider a Rayleigh-B\`enard (RB) cell, where the horizontal top boundary contains a periodic…
Deep reinforcement learning has been recognized as a promising tool to address the challenges in real-time control of power systems. However, its deployment in real-world power systems has been hindered by a lack of explicit stability and…
