Convection over a wavy heated bottom wall in the air flow has been studied in experiments with the Rayleigh number $sim 10^8$. It is shown that the mean temperature gradient in the flow core inside a large-scale circulation is directed upward, that corresponds to the stably stratified flow. In the experiments with a wavy heated bottom wall, we detect large-scale standing internal gravity waves excited in the regions with the stably stratified flow. The wavelength and the period of these waves are much larger than the turbulent spatial and time scales, respectively. In particular, the frequencies of the observed large-scale waves vary from 0.006 Hz to 0.07 Hz, while the turbulent time in the integral scale is about 0.5 s. The measured spectra of these waves contains several localized maxima, that implies an existence of waveguide resonators for the large-scale standing internal gravity waves. For comparisons, experiments with convection over a smooth plane bottom wall at the same mean temperature difference between bottom and upper walls have been also conducted. In these experiments various locations with a stably stratified flow are also found and the large-scale standing internal gravity waves are observed in these regions.

An experimental and numerical smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) analysis was performed for the convective flow arising from a horizontal, thin cylindrical heat source enclosed in a glycerin-filled, slender enclosure at low Rayleigh numbers ($1.18
leq {rm Ra}leq 242$). Both the experiments and the SPH calculations were performed for positive ($0.1leqDelta Tleq 10$ K) and negative ($-10leqDelta Tleq -0.1$ K) temperature differences between the source and the surrounding fluid. In all cases a pair of steady, counter-rotating vortices is formed, accompanied by a plume of vertically ascending flow just above the source for $Delta T>0$ and a vertically descending flow just below the source for $Delta T<0$. The maximum flow velocities always occur within the ascending/descending plumes. The SPH predictions are found to match the experimental observations acceptably well with root-mean-square errors in the velocity profiles of the order of $sim 10^{-5}$ m s$^{-1}$. The fact that the SPH method is able to reveal the detailed features of the flow phenomenon demonstrates the correctness of the approach.
We analyse the nonlinear dynamics of the large scale flow in Rayleigh-Benard convection in a two-dimensional, rectangular geometry of aspect ratio $Gamma$. We impose periodic and free-slip boundary conditions in the streamwise and spanwise directions
, respectively. As Rayleigh number Ra increases, a large scale zonal flow dominates the dynamics of a moderate Prandtl number fluid. At high Ra, in the turbulent regime, transitions are seen in the probability density function (PDF) of the largest scale mode. For $Gamma = 2$, the PDF first transitions from a Gaussian to a trimodal behaviour, signifying the emergence of reversals of the zonal flow where the flow fluctuates between three distinct turbulent states: two states in which the zonal flow travels in opposite directions and one state with no zonal mean flow. Further increase in Ra leads to a transition from a trimodal to a unimodal PDF which demonstrates the disappearance of the zonal flow reversals. On the other hand, for $Gamma = 1$ the zonal flow reversals are characterised by a bimodal PDF of the largest scale mode, where the flow fluctuates only between two distinct turbulent states with zonal flow travelling in opposite directions.
We explore the role of gravitational settling on inertial particle concentrations in a wall-bounded turbulent flow. While it may be thought that settling can be ignored when the settling parameter $Svequiv v_s/u_tau$ is small ($v_s$ - Stokes settling
velocity, $u_tau$ - fluid friction velocity), we show that even in this regime the settling may make a leading order contribution to the concentration profiles. This is because the importance of settling is determined, not by the size of $v_s$ compared with $u_tau$ or any other fluid velocity scale, but by the size of $v_s$ relative to the other mechanisms that control the vertical particle velocity and concentration profile. We explain this in the context of the particle mean-momentum equation, and show that in general, there always exists a region in the boundary layer where settling cannot be neglected, no matter how small $Sv$ is (provided it is finite). Direct numerical simulations confirm the arguments, and show that the near-wall concentration is highly dependent on $Sv$ even when $Svll 1$, and can reduce by an order of magnitude when $Sv$ is increased from $O(10^{-4})$ and $O(10^{-2})$. The results also show that the preferential sampling of ejection events in the boundary layer by inertial particles when $Sv=0$ is profoundly altered as $Sv$ is increased, and is replaced by a preferential sampling of sweep events due to the onset of the preferential sweeping mechanism.
In the paper taking the assumption of the slowness of the change of the parameters of the vertically stratified medium in the horizontal direction and in time, the evolution of the non-harmonic wave packages of the internal gravity waves has been ana
lyzed. The concrete form of the wave packages can be expressed through some model functions and is defined by the local behavior of the dispersive curves of the separate modes near to the corresponding special points. The solution of this problem is possible with the help of the modified variant of the special-time ray method offered by the authors (the method of geometrical optics), the basic difference of which consists that the asymptotic representation of the solution may be found in the form the series of the non-integer degrees of some small parameter. At that the exponent depends on the concrete form of representation of this package. The obvious kind of the representation is determined from the principle of the localness and the asymptotic behavior of the solution in the stationary and the horizontally-homogeneous case. The phases of the wave packages are determined from the corresponding equations of the eikonal, which can be solved numerically on the characteristics (rays). Amplitudes of the wave packages are determined from the laws of conservation of the some invariants along the characteristics (rays).
We experimentally investigate internal coastal Kelvin waves in a two-layer fluid system on a rotating table. Waves in our system propagate in the prograde direction and are exponentially localized near the boundary. Our experiments verify the theoret
ical dispersion relation of the wave and show that the wave amplitude decays exponentially along the propagation direction. We further demonstrate that the waves can robustly propagate along boundaries of complex geometries without being scattered and that adding obstacles to the wave propagation path does not cause additional attenuation.
