We discuss an analytical theory for the statistics of buoyancy fluctuations in high Rayleigh number fingering convection. We propose an idealized model that suggests the shape, depending on just three free parameters, of an otherwise unknown function that appears in the theory. The theoretical results are compared with data obtained from numerical simulations of the Boussinesq equations for double -diffusion.

Abstract
We discuss an analytical theory for the statistics of buoyancy fluctuations in high Rayleigh number fingering convection. We propose an idealized model that suggests the shape, depending on just three free parameters, of an otherwise unknown function that appears in the theory. The theoretical results are compared with data obtained from numerical simulations of the Boussinesq equations for double -diffusion.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
