Situation of the question
• Giant planets:
- global radiative balance > solar heating
- General circulation = zonal
- Alternance of bands with +/- zonal velocities
- Small pole-equator temperature gradient

Giant planets meteorology:
-banded structure-Highly turbulent regime-Internal heating source
![Page 5: Pierre Drossart LESIA](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042522/56813b41550346895da4172a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Internal heating
• Source : separation of He in the internal core or residual contraction (?)
=> internal convection presentQuestion: is the general circulation and the banded
appearance due to solar heating OR internal heating ?
Dimensionless parameter : E = ratio of emitted to solar heating
ratio of conductive time to radiative time

Numerical simulation (new approach in the context of the mid-80’s…)
• Full spherical (spherical shell) approach
• 3D simulation
• Approximation for convection : Boussinesq
(neglecting compressibility effects, except for thermal dilatation)

General adimensional Equations
• ………………….
Fields : u = velocity, P = pressure, T = temperature, = vorticityCharacteristic numbers :
T = Taylor, Coriolis vs viscosityP = Prandtl , ratio of diffusivitiesF = Froude, centrifugal force vs gravity

Boundary conditions• Rigid or free conditions at the
inner and outer shells• Temperature conditions adapted
to the planetary conditions• Pressure condition : Kleiser-
Schumann method for ensuring exact conditions at the boundary
• Thermal conditions related to observed planetary conditions

Numerical approach
• Spectral methods• Semi-implicit scheme• Chebyshev spectral decomposition for the
fields (FFT related)• Exact boundary conditions – adapted to
planetary conditions• Computers : CONVEX (Observatoire),
Cray (CIRCE/IDRISS), …

First results (1)
• Threshold for convective instability for various boundary conditions (free, fixed, etc.)
=> Exact comparison possible with Chandrasekhar calculations

What have we learned from this program
• Geostrophic solution for deep circulation
Deep circulation can be maintained by solar heating at the boundary condition !
• Zonal circulation appear at the outer boundary• Extension of Hide’s theorem in the deep shell
regime• Inversion of the zonal circulation compared to
geostrophic solution

Extension of the science program
• Collaboration with J.I. Yano : other approaches
• Collaboration with A. Sanchez-Lavega (Bilbao) for specific topics in Giant Planets dynamics (hot spot dynamics)

Conclusions of this work• Robust and validated program, method re-used by
several other projects• Good introduction (for LESIA) in the field of
dynamics, • Initiation of a fruitful long term collaboration
between LESIA and LMD• Two PhD thesis• Few publication (low bibliometrics, but …)• The G.P. Circulation problem is still there !• and …
