  1. Zonal flow driven by convection and convection driven by internal heating

    In the first part, Rayleigh-Benard convection is studied in a two-dimensional, horizontally periodic domain with free-slip top and bottom boundaries. This configuration encourages mean horizontal flows of zero horizontal wavenumber, which we study as an idealization of zonal flows in tokamaks, …

  2. Convection in Corrugated Slots

    … accurate algorithm suitable for analysis of convection problems in corrugated slots. The second part is devoted to the study of natural convection in corrugated slots. The algorithm uses the immersed boundary conditions (IBC) concept to deal with the irregular form of the solution domain …

  5. Downdraft impacts on tropical convection

    … the ability for downdrafts to help couple deep convection to high relative-humidity regions in the tropics, and find that entrainment is likely a more important process in this relationship. We discuss the impact of downdrafts in maintaining boundary layer quasi-equilibrium, and find that, in …

  8. Convection enhanced electrochemical energy storage

    … a contrast to Li-ion and redox flow batteries, convection batteries harnesses the key benefits of Li-ion batteries and redox flow batteries while overcoming their individual limitations. By incorporating thick electrodes into the cell, the energy density is increased and the cost of the system …

  10. Rain Formation in Shallow Tropical Convection

    Despite the time and space constraints placed on the results by the observed evolution of the updrafts, the calculations showed that the process of rain formation in warm convective clouds is simple and efficient, provided that giant and ultragiant CCN are present near cloud base. While more …
