摘要
In numerical Rayleigh-Benard convection at Rayleigh number 10(5) and 5 x 10(5), Prandtl numbers 0.07, 0.7, and 7, and aspect ratios 3, 4 or 6, large-scale patterns are sought. For aspect ratio 6 and Pr = 0.7, saturation of the mean velocity is only observed after 20 convective timescales. Three-dimensional visualization shows a strong influence of the confining sidewalls and corners for all Prandtl numbers. Sweeping motions are observed for Pr = 7.
