|a We use the linearized Navier-Stokes equations to study the large-scale flow structures in unstably stratified turbulent channel flows. The impulse response of the linear operator at bulk Richardson numbers from Rib=0.001 to Rib=1.0 are considered, corresponding to the increasing influence of buoyancy relative to shear. We compare the streamwise-constant flow structures predicted by the linear model to the quasistreamwise rolls that emerge with increasing Rib in direct numerical simulations (DNSs) [e.g., Pirozzoli et al., J. Fluid Mech. 821, 482 (2017)JFLSA70022-112010.1017/jfm.2017.216]. The linearized Navier-Stokes equations augmented with eddy-viscosity and eddy-diffusivity capture the emergence of the quasistreamwise rolls well. With increasing Rib, the temperature fluctuations of the streamwise-constant flow structures transition from having a peak in intensity at the channel centerline to having two peaks, one at each wall, consistent with DNS. © 2022 American Physical Society.
