A low-dimensional model (LDM) for turbulent Rayleigh-Beacutenard convection in a Cartesian cell with square domain, based on the Galerkin projection of the Boussinesq equations onto a finite set of empirical eigenfunctions, is presented. The empirical eigenfunctions are obtained from a joint proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) of the velocity and temperature fields using the snapshot method on the basis of direct numerical simulation (DNS). The resulting LDM is a quadratic inhomogeneous system of coupled ordinary differential equations which we use to describe the long-time temporal evolution of the large-scale mode amplitudes for a Rayleigh number of 10(5) and a Prandtl number of 0.7. The truncation to a finite number of degrees of freedom, which does not exceed a number of 310 for the present, requires the additional implementation of an eddy viscosity-diffusivity to capture the missing dissipation of the small-scale modes. The magnitude of this additional dissipation mechanism is determined by taking statistical stationarity and a total dissipation that corresponds with the original DNS data. We compare the performance of two models, a constant so-called Heisenberg viscosity-diffusivity and a mode-dependent or modal one. The latter viscosity-diffusivity model turns out to reproduce the large-scale properties of the turbulent convection qualitatively well, even for a model with only a few hundred POD modes.
