Large Scale Flow

A mathematical model of convection, obtained by truncation from the two-dimensional Boussinesq equations, is shown to exhibit a bifurcation from symmetrical cells to tilted non-symmetrical ones. A subsequent bifurcation leads to time-dependent flow with similarly tilted transient plumes and a large-scale Lagrangian mean flow. This change of symmetry is similar to that occurring with the advent of a large-scale flow and transient tilted plumes seen in laboratory experiments on turbulent convection at high Rayleigh number. Though not intended as a description of turbulent convection, the model does bring out in a theoretically tractable context the possibility of the spontaneous change of symmetry suggested by the experiments.Further bifurcations of the model lead to stable chaotic phenomena as well. These are numerically found to occur in association with heteroclinic orbits. Some mathematical results clarifying this association are also presented.

The Way

The way in which turbulent fluxes are usually represented in computations of large-scale flow in the convection zones of the sun and other stars is briefly described. A model of an ensemble of eddies that is capable of generalization to circumstances more complicated than the usual essentially spherically symmetrical convection zone is outlined. Generalization usually requires the introduction of new postulates, and, in so doing, also lays bare some of the assumptions, often implicit, in the usual mixing-length formalisms.
