Heat transport in turbulent rayleigh-Benard convection

چکیده
We present measurements of the Nusselt number N as a function of the Rayleigh number R in cylindrical cells with aspect ratios 0. 510(7) they are consistent with N = asigma-1/12R1/4+bsigma-1/7R3/7 as proposed by Grossmann and Lohse for sigma greater, similar2.

The Effect of Variable Properties on Rayleigh-Benard Convection in an Enclosure Filled with Al2O3-EG-Water Nanofluid
In this paper, the natural convection heat transfer of Al2O3-EG-water nanofluid in a rectangular cavity which is heated from the bottom and is cooled from the top has been investigated numerically. The governing equations for a Newtonian fluid have been solved numerically with a finite volume approach using the SIMPLER algorithm. The main focus of the current study is on the effects of variable...
متن کاملA practical model of convective dynamics for stellar evolution calculations
Turbulent motions in the interior of a star play an important role in its evolution, since they transport chemical species, thermal energy and angular momentum. Our overall goal is to construct a practical turbulent closure model for convective transport that can be used in a multidimensional stellar evolution calculation including the effects of rotation, shear and magnetic fields. Here, we fo...
متن کاملNumber : Title : Nonlinear Laplacian Spectral Analysis of Rayleigh
The analysis of physical datasets using modern methods developed in machine learning presents unique challenges and opportunities. These datasets typically feature many degrees of freedom, which tends to increase the computational cost of statistical methods and complicate interpretation. In addition, physical systems frequently exhibit a high degree of symmetry that should be exploited by any ...
متن کاملEffect of a polymer additive on heat transport in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
Measurements of heat transport, as expressed by the Nusselt number Nu, are reported for turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection of water containing up to 120 ppm by weight of poly-[ethylene oxide] with a molecular weight of 4x10{6} g/mole. Over the Rayleigh number range 5x10{9} less than or approximately Ra less than or approximately 7x10{10} Nu is smaller than it is for pure water by up to 10%.
متن کاملTransitions between turbulent states in rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection.
Weakly rotating turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection was studied experimentally and numerically. With increasing rotation and large enough Rayleigh number a supercritical bifurcation from a turbulent state with nearly rotation-independent heat transport to another with enhanced heat transfer is observed at a critical inverse Rossby number 1/Roc approximately 0.4. The strength of the large-scale...
