Helical Rayleigh-Benard Convection — •Philipp Reiter1, Rodion Stepanov2, and Olga Shishkina11Max-Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization, Göttingen, Germany — 2Institute of Continuos Media Mechanics, Perm, Russia

Helicity is known to play a key role in generation of large coherent flow structures in a large class of geophysical and astrophysical flows. Here we suggest a new way to inject helicity in convective systems through coupling of the temperature and vertical vorticity via the temperature boundary conditions under the requirement that the area-averaged temperatures of the heated and cooled plates are kept constant.

Using 3D direct numerical simulations, we verify the impact of these boundary conditions on the mean-flow helicity, analyze the global flow structures and the heat transport and investigate their dependencies on the particular parameters of the boundary conditions. For a certain set of parameters, when a significant amount of helicity is injected, we observe generation of the mean vertical angular momentum. In that case, after an initial transitional phase, the flow enters a state of a well-pronounced stable rotation.
