| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Turbulent transport and structure formation was experimentally investigated using electro-hydrodynamic convection (EC) with symmetry breaking. We applied the rotation in the system for breaking symmetry, then the turbulent transport efficiencies were compared between parallel and perpendicular to the axis of applied rotation. Because of large scattering among particles traced in the EC, any effects of rotation on the turbulent transport were identified. On the other hand, the wave number spectrum of turbulent velocity parallel to the line of sight have a different slop with respect to the wave number between parallel and perpendicular to the axis of rotation, which is caused by inverse-cascade in the direction parallel to the rotation axis. We have identified for the first time in the EC the stretching of turbulent vortex in the direction parallel to the rotation axis, which is identical to the tendency observed in normal fluid turbulence such as Taylor column.
