Abstract
Convection in a horizontal fluid layer heated from below is one of models for studying patterns of convection in binary fluid mixtures and has been extensively studied. In this article, the convection structures in a rectangular cell were investigated for the aspect-ratio Γ =12 and the separation ratio ⩖ = −0.47. Simulations were preformed by solving the hydrodynamic equations using the SIMPLE method. A Counter Propagating Wave (CPW) state was found in binary fluid convection with a periodically horizontal motion of defects, and the pattern dynamics was further discuss.
