Lagrangian Statistics of Heat Transfer in Homogeneous Turbulence Driven by Boussinesq Convection

The movement of heat in a convecting system is typically described by the nondimensional Nusselt number, which involves an average over both space and time. In direct numerical simulations of turbulent flows, there is considerable variation in the contributions to the Nusselt number, both because of...
