Scientific paper

The interaction between convection and gravity waves are simulated numerically in a model closely corresponding to the physical conditions in the solar interior. The penetration of convective elements into the stably stratified interior is shown to generate gravity waves. The energy efficiency of this generation is less than 0.1%. The simulations also show that the convective overshoot region is very shallow, 0.02 - 0.06 pressure scaleheights.
