 INTRODUCTION

In hydrodynamics, recent approaches have shown that mixing problems can be better understood by following the movement of fluid particles. Experimentally, it is now possible to make real-time measurements using particles that are passively entrained with the flow, and which retransmit the data by radio frequency. The case described here is that of thermal convection, where the instrumented particle measures variations in fluid temperature.
