The persistence of large-scale circulation in Rayleigh-Benard convection

Ping Wei

Summary: The study on turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection reveals that the strength of convective cellular pattern and large-scale circulation changes significantly with the Rayleigh number across different regimes such as conduction, convection, chaotic, transition, soft turbulence, and hard turbulence.Experimental data suggests a complex relationship between these dynamics as the Ra number varies.

Visibility network analysis of large-scale intermittency in convective surface layer turbulence

Subharthi Chowdhuri et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that large-scale intermittency in convective surface layer turbulence is related to strong nonlinear dependencies in temperature signals, while similar phenomena are not observed in velocity signals. A competition between linear and nonlinear effects tends to inhibit temperature-like intermittency behavior in streamwise and vertical velocities. This suggests new research avenues may be opened up in studying large-scale intermittency in convective turbulence.
