Caption: Figure 6.

Urms(r) against radius profiles averaged over time. That is the last 400 s for the FN1 simulation (represented by the green curve), 400 s for the FN2 simulation (represented by the blue curve), and the last 500 s for the NB1 simulation (represented by the orange curve). The vertical dashed lines indicate the Rconv for the FN2 (blue) and NB1 (orange) simulations. The red vertical dashed–dotted line indicates the location of the Urca Shell.
