文摘We numerically investigate the transport of a passive colloidal particle in a periodic array of planar counterrotating convection rolls,at high Peclet numbers.It is shown that an external bias,oriented parallel to the array,produces a huge excess diffusion peak,in cases where bias and advection drag become comparable.This effect is not restricted to one-dimensional convection geometries,and occurs independently of the array’s boundary conditions.
