8 Basic equations where D t u ẑ u = P p ΓT ẑ + Ro Re 2 u D t T = 1 Pe 2 T u =, Ro = U 2ΩL, P = P ρ U 2, UL Re = ν, UL Pe = κ, Γ = gα T L U 2 and L and U are arbitrary horizontal length and velocity scales to be selected depending on the process of interest. We suppose that Ro ɛ 1 and H/L = ɛ 1 with t ɛ 2 t + τ, x ɛ 1 x, y ɛ 1 y, z ɛ 1 z + Z. The slow spatial scale Z is required by the boundary conditions. Edgar Knobloch (UC Berkeley) Rapidly Rotating Convection 31 ctober / 36
9 Asymptotics An asymptotic expansion in ɛ with u v W = O(1), and T = T + ɛθ leads at O(ɛ 1 ) to geostrophic balance: ẑ u = p, u =, u = ( ψ y, ψ x ), ψ p At O(1) the vertical vorticity ω 2 ψ and vertical velocity W satisfy t ω + J[ψ, ω] Z W = Re 1 2 ω t W + J[ψ, W ] + Z ψ = Γθ + Re 1 2 W Fluctuating buoyancy equation at O(ɛ 1 ): Mean buoyancy equation at O(ɛ 1 ): t θ + J[ψ, θ] + W Z T = Pe 1 2 θ τ T + Z W θ = Pe 1 ZZ T. Edgar Knobloch (UC Berkeley) Rapidly Rotating Convection 31 ctober / 36
10 Asymptotics These equations constitute a closed reduced system of equations referred to as NHBGE. In these equations the overbar denotes horizontal average, followed by an average over fast time, and J(f, g) f x g y f y g x. The boundary conditions are w = ψ Z = θ =, T = 1, on Z =, w = ψ Z = θ =, T =, on Z = 1 corresponding to stress-free boundaries. The resulting inviscid dispersion relation for modes of the form exp i(λt + k x + k z z) is λ 2 reduced = k2 z k 2, cf. λ 2 NS = k 2 z k 2 + E 2/3 k 2 z Thus fast inertial waves on O(E 1/3 H) vertical scales are filtered out. Remark: With the choice L/H = E 1/3 corresponding to the preferred linear theory scale at large rotation rates the expansion parameter is ɛ = E 1/3. Here E ν/2ωh 2 is the Ekman number.

15 and this relation is not closed. Edgar Knobloch (UC Berkeley) Rapidly Rotating Convection 31 ctober / 36 An exact result The reduced system saturates in a statistically steady state with W θ Z T = 1 σ θ 2 Z T = σw θ Nu, where Nu is the Nusselt number. Thus Z T = 1 2 Nu ± 1 [ ] 1/2 Nu 2 4 θ 2 2. Thus the thermal dissipation rate is bounded: θ 2 Nu 2 /4. Since the sign refers to the thermal boundary layer and the + sign to the bulk the transition between these two regions occurs where θ 2 = Nu 2 /4. At this location, hereafter Z = δ ɛ, we have equipartition between conduction and convection: Z T = σw θ = Nu/2. Remark: In nonrotating RB convection we have instead W θ Z T Z W θ 2 = 1 σ θ 2 1 σ ( Z θ) 2
16 Boundary layer instability We use the rescaled equations to analyze the stability of the mean thermal profile as determined from a nonlinear two-point eigenvalue problem for the Nusselt number Nu given R, and look for the onset of convective instability in the boundary layer SM BL Nu 1.6 z.4.8 z RaE 4/3.2 T SM T BL T.6 ζ w θ In contrast to RB convection the boundary layer becomes convectively unstable already at small supercriticality. Edgar Knobloch (UC Berkeley) Rapidly Rotating Convection 31 ctober / 36
17 Boundary layer structure in geostrophic turbulence We postulate a scaling relation for the structure of the boundary layer of the form τ = R bτ t, η = R bη Z, λ = R bλ x, ψ = R bψ Ψ, ω = R b ψ+2 bλ Ω, w = R bw W, θ = R bθ Θ, Z T = R bη η T ɛ, where R RaE 4/3 R c. Our simulations indicate that all terms remain in play as R increases, leading to the relations λ = ŵ = s, η = 3s, τ = Ω = 2s, = 1 s, ψ =, θ = 3s 1, where s >. Thus Nu R 4s 1 and we have a one parameter family of scaling solutions. Comparison with the measured turbulent scaling law Nu R 3/2 implies that s = 5/8 and yields predictions of all other quantities.

In nonrotating convection.28 α.31 (Grossmann and Lohse (2), Xu et al (2), Ahlers and Xu (21)) unless the boundary layers become turbulent when α.38. Here the mean temperature gradient at midheight decreases to zero as Ra increases. Thus heat transport is limited by the efficiency of the boundary layers. In rapidly rotating convection the mean temperature gradient at midheight saturates as Ra increases and heat transport is limited by the efficiency of the turbulent interior. For Ra c Ra Ra t we expect Nu to depend only on Ra/Ra c. Thus Nu 1 (RaE 4/3 ) α. If we suppose that the heat flux is independent of microscopic diffusion coefficients, then α = 3/2 (β = 2), and Nu 1 C 1 σ 1/2 Ra 3/2 E 2 with C 1.4 ±.25 from simulations.

23 Transition to nonrotating scaling As Ra increases at fixed rotation rate we expect a transition to nonrotating scaling. This is a consequence of increasing convective Rossby number Ro conv E Ra/σ. We conjecture that the transition to nonrotating scaling is triggered by the loss of geostrophic balance in the boundary layer, i.e., when the boundary layer Rossby number Ro loc E loc Ra 1/2 loc 1. Here E loc = Eη 2 and Ra loc = Ra( T loc / T )η 3 = Ra Nu η 4, where η R 3s H is the boundary layer width. Since Nu R 4s 1 and Ra = R E 4/3, it follows that E loc = E R 6s ε 3 and Ra loc = E 4/3 R 8s ε 4, where ε E 1/3 R 2s. It follows that Ro loc ε and hence that Ro loc 1 when E 1/3 R 2s 1. Since s = 5/8 this occurs when Ra reaches Ra t E 8/5, or equivalently when Ro = Ro t E 1/5. Since E 1 the transition Rossby number Ro t 1, i.e., the transition from the 3/2 scaling law occurs in the rapidly rotating regime. There is some evidence for the validity of these predictions as shown next. Edgar Knobloch (UC Berkeley) Rapidly Rotating Convection 31 ctober / 36

31 Barotropic/baroclinic vorticity equations Let ω = ω + ω, ψ = ψ + ψ, where... denotes a depth average. Then and ω t + J[ ψ, ω ] + J[ψ, ω ] = 2 ω ω t + J[ ψ, ω ] + J[ψ, ω ] + J[ψ, ω ] DW = 2 ω Thus the baroclinic-baroclinic term acts as a source term for the barotropic mode. Without this term the barotropic flow is identical to 2D hydrodynamics and an inverse energy cascade to large scales is expected. In fact this is so even in the presence of this term, and leads to a k 3 pile up at large scales, eg., Smith and Waleffe, Phys. Fluids 11, 168 (1999). However, the fluctuation equation is fully 3D and hence exhibits the usual energy spectrum expected from Kolmogorov theory. k 5/3 The emergence of a coherent structure from a turbulent state has been termed spectral condensation (PRL 95, (25); 11, (28); 112, (214)).

32 Formation of large scale vortices: spectral description The growth of barotropic kinetic energy at horizontal wave number k obeys t K bt (k) = T k + F k + D k, where T k pq T kpq and F k pq F kpq represent, respectively, the symmetrized transfer of energy between Fourier modes within the barotropic component and the transfer of energy between baroclinic and barotropic modes; D k k 2 K bt is the viscous dissipation of the barotropic mode. Moreover, T kpq = b pq Re [ ψ k ψ p ψ q ] δ k+p+q,, F kpq = b pq Re [ ψ k ψ pψ q ] δ k+p+q,, b pq = b qp 1 2 (p2 q 2 )(p x q y p y q x ). These transfer rates can be computed from the simulations.

36 Conclusions Heat transport in rapidly rotating convection (E 1): At large Ra the Nusselt number scales as Nu 1 C 1 σ 1/2 Ra 3/2 E 2 with C 1.4 ±.25. This scaling is a consequence of inefficient heat transport in the turbulent bulk This is a result of the saturation of the midheight mean temperature gradient as Ra increases The scaling is a consequence of the scaling behavior of the boundary layers at large Ra Transition from this scaling occurs when the local Rossby number in the boundary layer becomes of order unity, i.e., at Ra t E 8/5 as E, or equivalently when Ro = Ro t E 1/5. Geostrophic turbulence in this system is unstable to a large scale barotropic (vortical) mode The spectra of the barotropic and baroclinic components of the HKE are consistent with the Kraichnan and Kolmogorov pictures (2D conserves energy and enstrophy, 3D conserves energy only) Edgar Knobloch (UC Berkeley) Rapidly Rotating Convection 31 ctober / 36
37 Conclusions (ctd) Baroclinic-baroclinic forcing injects energy directly to the largest scales despite the small scale nature of the baroclinic fields Certain aspects of these predictions have been confirmed in simulations of the primitive equations by Stellmach (212), Favier et al (PF 26, 9665, 214) and Guervilly et al (JFM 758, 47, 214). The fact that a fully 3D turbulent flow exhibits a large scale instability may have geophysical and astrophysical implications References: K Julien, E Knobloch and J Werne, Th. Comp. Fl.
