Shear-induced convective mixing in bottom boundary layers on slopes
Field data from a stratified lake demonstrate that buoyancy-driven convective mixing can be an important mechanism for the formation of well-mixed bottom boundary layers (BBLs) on slopes. Convective turbulence is caused by differential transport of stratified water masses along the slope of a basin. Because the current velocity usually decreases toward the sediment, water at some distance from ...
متن کاملTurbulent convection with “disconnected” top and bottom boundary layers
– We have done an experimental study of turbulent thermal convection in water using a cell with a baffle placed at its mid-height, over a range of Ra that spans from 2 × 10 to 2× 10. It was found that in this case the large-scale circulation is not able to advect heat between the top and bottom plates and heat has to be carried across the baffle mainly by thermal plumes. Furthermore, the measur...
متن کاملBoundary Layers and Heat Transfer on a Rotating Rough Disk
The study of flow and heat transfer over rotating circular disks is of great practical importance in understanding the cooling of rotatory machinery such as turbines, electric motors and design and manufacturing of computer disk drives. This paper presents an analysis of the flow and heat transfer over a heated infinite permeable rough disk. Boundary-layer approximation reduces the elliptic Nav...
متن کاملA modified law-of-the-wall applied to oceanic bottom boundary layers
[1] Near the bottom, the velocity profile in the bottom boundary layer over the continental shelf exhibits a characteristic law-of-the-wall that is consistent with local estimates of friction velocity from near-bottom turbulence measurements. Farther from the bottom, the velocity profile exhibits a deviation from the law-of-the-wall. Here the velocity gradient continues to decrease with height ...
متن کاملInteracting oscillatory boundary layers and wall modes in modulated rotating convection
Thermal convection in a rotating cylinder near onset is investigated using direct numerical simulations of the Navier–Stokes equations with the Boussinesq approximation in a regime dominated by the Coriolis force. For thermal driving too small to support convection throughout the entire cell, convection sets in as alternating pairs of hot and cold plumes in the sidewall boundary layer, the so-c...
