Heat transport by turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection for Pr ≃ 0.8 and 3 × 1012 ≲ Ra ≲ 1015: aspect ratio Γ = 0.50
We report on the experimental results for heat-transport measurements, in the form of the Nusselt number Nu , by turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection (RBC) in a cylindrical sample of aspect ratio Γ ≡ D / L = 0.50 ( D = 1.12 m is the diameter and L = 2.24 m the height). The measurements were made...
