Recent experimental, numerical and theoretical advances in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard
convection are presented. Particular emphasis is given to the physics and structure of the …

The progress in our understanding of several aspects of turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard
convection is reviewed. The focus is on the question of how the Nusselt number and the …

A turbulent medium with eddies of different scales gives rise to fluctuations in the index of
refraction during the process of wave propagation, which interferes with the original spatial …

Wall-bounded turbulent flows can take different statistically stationary turbulent states, with
different transport properties, even for the very same values of the control parameters. What …

The heat transport and corresponding changes in the large-scale circulation (LSC) in
turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection are studied by means of three-dimensional direct …

The ubiquity of turbulent flows in nature and technology makes it of utmost importance to
fundamentally understand turbulence. Kolmogorov's 1941 paradigm suggests that for …

Results from direct numerical simulation for three-dimensional Rayleigh–Bénard convection
in samples of aspect ratio and up to Rayleigh number are presented. The broad range of …

We studied the flow organization and heat transfer properties in two-dimensional and three-
dimensional Rayleigh–Bénard cells that are imposed with different types of wall shear. The …

We report on a numerical study of the aspect-ratio dependency of Rayleigh-Bénard
convection, using direct numerical simulations. The investigated domains have equal height …

The large-scale circulation (LSC) of fluid is one of the main concepts in turbulent thermal
convection as it is known to be important in global heat and mass transport in the system. In …
