DNS of Structural Vacillation in the transition to geostrophic turbulence
Advances in Turbulence XI - Proceedings of the 11th EUROMECH European Turbulence Conference (2007) 432-434
Abstract:
The onset of small-scale fluctuations around a steady convection pattern in a rotating baroclinic annulus filled with air is investigated using Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS). In previous laboratory experiments of baroclinic waves, such fluctuations have been associated with Structural Vacillation which is regarded as the first step in the transition to fully-developed geostrophic turbulence. Here we present an analysis which focusses on the small-scale features.Editorial
