Cascades and transitions in turbulent flows

A Alexakis, L Biferale - Physics Reports, 2018 - Elsevier
Turbulent flows are characterized by the non-linear cascades of energy and other inviscid
invariants across a huge range of scales, from where they are injected to where they are …

Heat transfer and large scale dynamics in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection

G Ahlers, S Grossmann, D Lohse - Reviews of modern physics, 2009 - APS
The progress in our understanding of several aspects of turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard
convection is reviewed. The focus is on the question of how the Nusselt number and the …

[图书][B] Physics of buoyant flows: from instabilities to turbulence

MK Verma - 2018 - World Scientific
Hydrodynamic flows exhibit turbulent behaviour which is not well understood till date. When
a fluid is in a gravitational field, the flow becomes even more complex due to the gravity …

Phenomenology of buoyancy-driven turbulence: recent results

MK Verma, A Kumar, A Pandey - New Journal of Physics, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
In this paper, we describe the recent developments in thefield of buoyancy-driven turbulence
with a focus on energy spectrum andflux. Scaling and numerical arguments show that the …

Ultimate state of thermal convection

D Lohse, F Toschi - Physical review letters, 2003 - APS
The ultimate regime of thermal convection, the so-called Kraichnan regime [RH Kraichnan,
Phys. Fluids 5, 1374 (1962)], hitherto has been elusive. Here numerical evidence for that …

Energy spectrum of buoyancy-driven turbulence

A Kumar, AG Chatterjee, MK Verma - Physical Review E, 2014 - APS
Using high-resolution direct numerical simulation and arguments based on the kinetic
energy flux Π u, we demonstrate that, for stably stratified flows, the kinetic energy spectrum E …
