Scientific paper

The current state of understanding of the most directly observable solar convection, the granulation and supergranulation is summarized. The body of work in which the complete time dependent Navier-Stokes equations and entropy transport equation are solved for a fully compressible atmosphere is considered. Relevant anelastic and incompressible calculations in two dimensions are also discussed.
