Scientific paper

Numerical simulations of convection near the solar surface are now advanced enough to reproduce both a large set of observational data and provide tests for convection models. We discuss the role of coherent structures in models of solar p-mode excitation, for which the analysis of numerical simulations has provided key inputs in the modelling. The robustness of these simulations is shown by a comparison illustrating the influence of boundary conditions on ensemble averaged quantities. In a concluding example advanced high resolution simulations are shown to resolve the onset of shear driven turbulence generated by up- and downflow structures.
