“…The equations have been made nondimensional by using, next to L and Á, the freefall velocity U ¼ ffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi ffi gÁL p . The simulations were performed on a grid of 129 Â 257 Â 257 nodes, respectively, in the radial, azimuthal and vertical directions, allowing for a sufficient resolution of the small scales both inside the bulk of turbulence and in the BLs (where the grid-point density has been enhanced) for the parameters employed here [14,15]. Nu is calculated as in Refs.…”
