Dynamics of turbulent structures in a Rayleigh-Bénard-system — •Michael Peters and Michael Langner — Uni Oldenburg, Deutschland

Abstract: Langevin analysis of a time series essentially serves to work out the underlying deterministic law of the stochastic dynamical system considered. This method is applied to a measured time series of a Rayleigh-Bénard convection experiment in the turbulent region. The experimental setup consists of a water-filled cylindrical vessel heated from below. At the Rayleigh number Ra=6.8×109 a roll convection is observed with stochastic reorientations of the roll axis. The time series refers to the measurement of the vertical velocity component at a given point near the cylinder wall. The analysis of the corresponding one-dimensional Langevin equation reveals a deterministic double-well potential.
