Penetrative convection at high Rayleigh numbers
We study penetrative convection of a fluid confined between two horizontal plates, the temperatures of which are such that a temperature of maximum density lies between them. The range of Rayleigh numbers studied is Ra = [10⁶,10⁸] and the Prandtl numbers are Pr = 1 and 11.6. An evolution equation fo...
