Boundary Layer Structure in Turbulent Rayleigh-bénard Convection in Air
We present Particle Image Velocimetry measurements in the boundary layer in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convection for the Rayleigh number RR = 1.4 × 1010 and the Prandtl number PP = 0.7 . The measurements have been undertaken in a large-scale RB experiment 7.15 m in diameter and 6.30 m in height which is called the “Barrel of Ilmenau”. They give detailed insight into the near-wall flow fiel...
متن کاملInvestigation of the turbulent boundary layer in high Rayleigh number convection in air using long PIV sequences
This contribution reports on near-wall flow field measurements in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection (RBC) in air at a fixed Prandtl number Pr = 0.7 and Rayleigh number Ra = 1.45 × 10. For the experiment the large scale convection (LSC) was confined to a rectangular box of 2.5× 2.5× 0.65m made of transparent acrylic sheets. Prior video-graphic visualizations of the bottom boundary layer flow ...
متن کاملBoundary layer analysis in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection in air: experiment versus simulation.
We report measurements and numerical simulations of the three-dimensional velocity and temperature fields in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection in air. Highly resolved velocity and temperature measurements inside and outside the boundary layers have been directly compared with equivalent data obtained in direct numerical simulations (DNSs). This comparison comprises a set of two Rayleigh numb...
متن کاملThermal boundary layer equation for turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
We report a new thermal boundary layer equation for turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection for Prandtl number Pr>1 that takes into account the effect of turbulent fluctuations. These fluctuations are neglected in existing equations, which are based on steady-state and laminar assumptions. Using this new equation, we derive analytically the mean temperature profiles in two limits: (a) Pr≳1 and (b)...
متن کاملBoundary Layer Scaling in Rayleigh-bénard Convection
The scaling of the kinematic boundary layer thickness λu and the friction factor Cf at the topand bottom-wall of Rayleigh-Bénard convection is studied by Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS). By a detailed analysis of the friction factor, a new parameterisation for Cf and λu is proposed. The simulations were made of an L/H = 4 aspect-ratio domain with periodic lateral boundary conditions at Ra = {...
