Simulation of infinite Prandtl number, thermal convection (e.g., mantle convection).

Simulation of infinite Prandtl number, thermal convection (e.g., mantle convection). Simulations are run for variable Rayleigh numbers (Ra) and with or without internal heating (H) on a grid with 64×64 discrete nodes using an isoviscous formulation (unless marked otherwise). Equations solved are non-dimensionalised (nd) and the domain boundaries free-slip (impermeable) and insulating on both domain sides, and isothermally hot at the bottom and cold at the top. The Scientific colour map ‘vik‘ is used to represent data accurately and to all readers.
