Heat transport in horizontally periodic and confined Rayleigh-Bénard convection with no-slip and free-slip plates

We report the results of the direct numerical simulations of two-dimensional Rayleigh-Bénard convection(RBC) in order to study the influence of the periodic (PD) and confined (CF) samples on the heat transport Nu. The numerical study is conducted with the Rayleigh number (Ra) varied in the range 106...
