Scientific paper

A numerical simulation of three-dimensional thermal-convection structure in a fluid with strongly temperature-dependent viscosity filling a bottom-heated rectangular box is presented. It is shown that the convective flow patterns obtained in the numerical simulation are consistent with predictions of Busse and Frick (1985). The planform of the convection obtained for a fluid in a bottom-heated box of aspect ratio a(x) = 3 and a(y) = 1.5 at R sub t = 10 exp 5 was the same as the one obtained by Travis et al. (1990).
