High Rayleigh number thermo-chemical models of a dense boundary layer in D′′
We simulate the effects of an intrinsically dense boundary layer at the base of the mantle on the thermal structure of D and the dynamics of the lower mantle. Using a finite element model of thermo-chemical convection in 2-D with a Rayleigh number of 10, we investigate the dynamic consequences of varying the density and of increasing thermal diffusivity in the basal layer to simulate enrichment...
متن کاملInteractions within the turbulent boundary layer at high Reynolds number
Simultaneous streamwise velocity measurements across the vertical direction obtained in the atmospheric surface layer (Reτ 5 × 10) under near thermally neutral conditions are used to outline and quantify interactions between the scales of turbulence, from the very-large-scale motions to the dissipative scales. Results from conditioned spectra, joint probability density functions and conditional...
متن کاملInvestigation on Instability of Rayleigh-Benard Convection Using Lattice Boltzmann Method with a Modified Boundary Condition
In this study, the effects of Prandtl number on the primary and secondary instability of the Rayleigh-Benard convection problem has been investigated using the lattice Boltzmann method. Two different cases as Pr=5.8 and 0.7 representing the fluid in liquid and gas conditions are examined. A body forces scheme of the lattice Boltzmann method was presented. Two types of boundary conditions in the...
متن کاملMultiple Layer Rayleigh-Taylor Instability
We study a general multiple layer Rayleigh-Taylor instability problem for both compressible and incompressible inviscid uids. Our main result is that many features of a multilayer system are universal, in the sense they do not depend on such details as the number of layers, their thicknesses, equations of state for the uids, and equilibrium density distributions. It is shown that a compressible...
