The onset of zonal modes in two-dimensional Rayleigh-Bénard convection
We study the stability of steady convection rolls in two-dimensional Rayleigh-Bénard convection with free-slip boundaries and horizontal periodicity over 12 orders of magnitude in the Prandtl number (10-6 ≤ Pr ≤ 106) and 6 orders of magnitude in the Rayleigh number(8π4 < Ra ≤ 108). The analysis...
