We obtain an analytical bound on the mean vertical convective heat flux $\langle w T \rangle$ between two parallel boundaries driven by uniform internal heating. We consider two configurations, one with both boundaries held at the same…
We prove a new rigorous bound for the mean convective heat transport $\langle w T \rangle$, where $w$ and $T$ are the nondimensional vertical velocity and temperature, in internally heated convection between an insulating lower boundary and…
This work investigates heat transport in rotating internally heated convection, for a horizontally periodic fluid between parallel plates under no-slip and isothermal boundary conditions. The main results are the proof of bounds on the mean…
New bounds are proven on the mean vertical convective heat transport, $\overline{\langle wT \rangle}$, for uniform internally heated (IH) convection in the limit of infinite Prandtl number. For fluid in a horizontally-periodic layer between…
We investigate the influence of the thermal properties of the boundaries in turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard convection on analytical upper bounds on convective heat transport. We model imperfectly conducting bounding plates in two ways: using…
We consider convection in an internally heated layer of fluid that is bounded below by a perfect insulator and above by a poor conductor. The poorly conducting boundary is modelled by a fixed heat flux. Using solely analytical methods, we…
The heat transport in rotating Rayleigh-B\'enard convection is considered in the limit of rapid rotation (small Ekman number $E$) and strong thermal forcing (large Rayleigh number $Ra$). The analysis proceeds from a set of asymptotically…
Two-dimensional direct numerical simulations are conducted for convection sustained by uniform internal heating in a horizontal fluid layer. Top and bottom boundary temperatures are fixed and equal. Prandtl numbers range from 0.01 to 100,…
We prove new bounds on the heat flux out of the bottom boundary, $\mathcal{F}_B$, for a fluid at infinite Prandtl number, heated internally between isothermal parallel plates under two kinematic boundary conditions. In uniform internally…
Internally heated convection involves the transfer of heat by fluid motion between a distribution of sources and sinks. Focusing on the balanced case where the total heat added by the sources matches the heat taken away by the sinks, we…
Convection on geophysical and astrophysical scales is subject to rapid rotation and strong heating from within the domain. In studying the long-time behaviour of the solutions for such a system, energy identities fail to capture the effects…
We consider an internally heated fluid between parallel plates with fixed thermal fluxes. For a large class of heat sources that vary in the direction of gravity, we prove that $\langle\delta T \rangle_h \geq \sigma R^{-1/3} - \mu$, where…
We study Rayleigh-Benard convection in the high-Rayleigh-number and high-Prandtl-number regime, i.e., we consider a fluid in a container that is exposed to strong heating of the bottom and cooling of the top plate in the absence of inertia…
Laboratory experiments were conducted to study heat transport characteristics in a nonhomogeneously heated fluid annulus subjected to rotation along the vertical axis (z). The nonhomogeneous heating was obtained by imposing radial and…
By tailoring the geometry of the upper boundary in turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard convection we manipulate the boundary layer -- interior flow interaction, and examine the heat transport using the Lattice Boltzmann method. For fixed amplitude…
We derive an improved rigorous bound on the space and time averaged temperature $<T>$ of an infinite Prandtl number Boussinesq fluid contained between isothermal no-slip boundaries thermally driven by uniform internal heating. A novel…
The non-hydrostatic, quasigeostrophic approximation for rapidly rotating Rayleigh-B\'enard convection admits a class of exact `single mode' solutions. These solutions correspond to steady laminar convection with a separable structure…
Convection of an internally heated fluid, confined between top and bottom plates of equal temperature, is studied by direct numerical simulation in two and three dimensions. The unstably stratified upper region drives convection that…
Upper bounds on time-averaged heat transport are obtained for an eight-mode Galerkin truncation of Rayleigh's 1916 model of natural thermal convection. Bounds for the ODE model---an extension of Lorenz's three-ODE system---are derived by…
The heat transport in rotating Rayleigh-B\'enard convection (RBC) can be significantly enhanced for moderate rotation, i.e., for an intermediate range of Rossby numbers $Ro$, compared to the non-rotating case. At Rayleigh numbers…
