| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We address a basic question in synchronization phenomena, “Where is the power source necessary to sustain synchronized oscillations?” Very little experimental research exists that has specifically focused on synchronization from the viewpoint of the power source or power flux density. To find the power source may be easy if a system has just one source, but is never trivial in the case of synchronization phenomena involving multiple power sources.
Self-sustained oscillations in a gas column induced by a temperature gradient are periodically perturbed by external forcing. The power source required to sustain synchronized oscillations is identified using sound intensity measurements. We demonstrate that, even if small forcing entrains the natural frequency or strong forcing completely suppresses the natural dynamics, the external forcing device is never the source of power; this source resides in the temperature gradient, which creates natural-frequency oscillations.
