Content moved from Bénard cell

In reading about this type of convection (see Rayleigh-Bénard convection: structures and dynamics By Alexander V. Getling) I formed the impression that the primary topic really was Rayleigh-Bénard convection itself; the Benard cell is just one aspect of the broader convection patterns and instabilities; having "Benard cell" as the primary article seemed an unnecessary narrowing of the subject area. Hence I moved the content from Bénard cell here.

To outline the changes related to this move:

Removing mention of examples of Bénard cells, such as the Giants' Staircase, patterns commonly seen in dried mud, and the granulation observed in the Sun is unforgivable. David Spector (talk) 16:04, 18 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Video not working

The embedded video is not working, but the problem lies here: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:B%C3%A9nard_cells_convection.ogv I wasn't able to figure out to make it work... --129.13.72.198 (talk) 12:44, 29 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

There is no interface between fluids of different densities as in Rayleigh-Taylor. Rayleigh-Benard is driven by boundary conditions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2620:102:400A:107C:D:83AA:9C4A:380C (talk) 15:24, 27 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

Better to put DOI for references

edit

https://doi.org/10.1080/14786441608635602

for reference 11 for instance — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.174.4.67 (talk) 22:56, 8 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
