Ultimate state of thermal convection.
The ultimate regime of thermal convection, the so-called Kraichnan regime [R. H. Kraichnan, Phys. Fluids 5, 1374 (1962)]], hitherto has been elusive. Here numerical evidence for that regime is presented by performing simulations of the bulk of turbulence only, eliminating the thermal and kinetic boundary layers and replacing them with periodic boundary conditions.
متن کاملTurbulent Thermal Convection with an Obstructed Sidewall
We present an experimental study of turbulent convection in a cell with staggered fingers on its sidewall using water as the convecting fluid. Our measurements reveal that Nu , Ra20.27, and that the temperature probability density function (PDF) at the cell center is a double-peaked function which can be fitted by the superposition of two Gaussians. Moreover, it is found that the size of the lo...
متن کاملRapid PCR Thermocycling using Microscale Thermal Convection
Many molecular biology assays depend in some way on the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to amplify an initially dilute target DNA sample to a detectable concentration level. But the design of conventional PCR thermocycling hardware, predominantly based on massive metal heating blocks whose temperature is regulated by thermoelectric heaters, severely limits the achievable reaction speed(1). Cons...
متن کاملThermal convection for large Prandtl numbers.
The Rayleigh-Bénard theory by Grossmann and Lohse [J. Fluid Mech. 407, 27 (2000)] is extended towards very large Prandtl numbers Pr. The Nusselt number Nu is found here to be independent of Pr. However, for fixed Rayleigh numbers Ra a maximum in the Nu(Pr) dependence is predicted. We moreover offer the full functional dependences of Nu(Ra,Pr) and Re(Ra,Pr) within this extended theory, rather th...
متن کاملPattern formation in spatially forced thermal convection
In this paper, we present experimental results on the interplay between two different symmetry breaking mechanisms in a pattern forming system, namely inclined layer convection (ILC) with a spatially modulated heated plate. By varying the relative strength and relative orientation, we explored in detail the interplay of these symmetry breaking mechanisms. We found a stabilization of spatio-temp...
