| Information: |
The main aim of the workshop will be the presentation of the more recent advances on high Rayleigh convection associated with large space for discussions and collaborations between different communities. This High Rayleigh number Workshop is the 4th after Ilmenau (2000), Leiden (2003) and Trieste (2006). The previous workshops always had an informal character with space for discussion and interaction and a lot of progress have followed in the years past the meetings. Another goal is to try with this workshop to put together some of the different communities interested in the subject.
Main topics: • thermal convection in rotating flows, • ultimate regime in Rayleigh Bénard convection • convection in non Boussinesq flows • low and high Prandtl number flow • convective mixing • large scale flow dynamics |
