Thermal boundary layers in turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection at aspect ratios between 1 and 9
We report highly resolved temperature measurements in turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection in air at a fixed Prandtl number Pr = 0.7. Extending our previous work (du Puits et al 2007 J. Fluid Mech. 572 231–54), we carried out measurements at various aspect ratios while keeping the Rayleigh number c...
