DIRECT NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF TURBULENT RAYLEIGH-BÉNARD CONVECTION IN A SLIGHTLY TILTED CYLINDRICAL CONTAINER

Results of direct numerical simulation of turbulent convection in a cylindrical container heated from below are presented. The height-to-diameter ratio is equal to 1.0. The calculations are performed for mercury (Pr = 0.025) at Ra = 10^6 and water (Pr = 6.4) at Ra = 10^8. To prevent azimuthal motion...
