We present measurements of the normalized charge transport or Nusselt number $\rm Nu$ as a function of the aspect ratio $\Gamma$ for turbulent convection in an electrically driven film. In analogy with turbulent Rayleigh-B{\'e}nard…
Heat and momentum transfer in wall-bounded turbulent flow, coupled with the effects of wall-roughness, is one of the outstanding questions in turbulence research. In the standard Rayleigh-B\'enard problem for natural thermal convection, it…
Electron plasmas confined by an external magnetic field exhibit variations in a two-dimensional plane orthogonal to the confining magnetic field. A nonlinear fluid simulation code to investigate the properties of 2-D electron plasma wave…
Numerical analyses of transient electro-osmosis of a typical non-Newtonian liquid induced by DC and AC electric fields in a rectangular microchannel are conducted in the framework of continuum fluid mechanics. The famous power-law…
We reveal interesting universal transport behavior of ordered one-dimensional fermionic systems with power-law hopping. We restrict ourselves to the case where the power-law decay exponent $\alpha>1$, so that the thermodynamic limit is…
We develop a characterization method of electroconvection structures in a planar nematic liquid crystal layer by a study of the electric current transport. Because the applied potential difference has a sinusoidal time dependence, we define…
We examine the charge transport through disordered arrays of metallic dots using numerical simulations. We find power law scaling in the current-voltage curves for arrays containing no voids, while for void-filled arrays charge bottlenecks…
A suspended fluid film with two free surfaces convects when a sufficiently large voltage is applied across it. We present a linear stability analysis for this system. The forces driving convection are due to the interaction of the applied…

An interesting question in turbulent convection is how the heat transport depends on the strength of thermal forcing in the limit of very large thermal forcing. Kraichnan predicted [Phys. Fluids {\bf 5}, 1374 (1962)] that the heat transport…
A solvable turbulent model is used to predict both the structure of the boundary layer and the scaling laws in thermal convection. The transport of heat depends on the interplay between the thermal, viscous and integral scales of…
We present results on the effect of dispersed droplets in vertical natural convection (VC) using direct numerical simulations based on a two-way fully coupled Euler-Lagrange approach with a liquid phase and a dispersed droplets phase. For…
We propose a phenomenological model for thermal convection at high Rayleigh numbers. It hypothesizes existence of a high-Reynolds-number turbulent boundary layer near each horizontal plate, which is shown to be convective. The convective…
In this study we report numerical results of turbulent transport of heat $Nu$ and angular momentum $\nu_{t}/\nu$ in Taylor-Couette (TC) flows subjected to a radial temperature gradient. Direct numerical simulations are performed in a TC…
Steady flows that optimize heat transport are obtained for two-dimensional Rayleigh-B\'enard convection with no-slip horizontal walls for a variety of Prandtl numbers $Pr$ and Rayleigh number up to $Ra\sim 10^9$. Power law scalings of…
Electron heat flux is an important and often dominant mechanism of energy transport in a variety of collisional plasmas in a confined fusion or astrophysical context. While nonlocal conductive heat transport, driven by strong temperature…
Turbulent viscosity $\nu_t$ and resistivity $\eta_t$ are perhaps the simplest models for turbulent transport of angular momentum and magnetic fields, respectively. The associated turbulent magnetic Prandtl number $Pr_t\equiv \nu_t/\eta_t$…
We present a theory to describe the Nusselt number ($Nu$), corresponding to the heat or mass flux, as a function of the Rayleigh--Darcy number ($Ra$), the ratio of buoyant driving force over diffusive dissipation, in convective porous media…
We develop a hydrodynamic theory of charge and heat currents induced by traveling waves, such as surface acoustic waves, in graphene devices near charge neutrality. The currents depend on the intrinsic conductivity and viscosity of the…
We consider the evolution of a family of 2D dispersive turbulence models. The members of this family involve the nonlinear advection of a dynamically active scalar field, the locality of the streamfunction-scalar relation is denoted by…
