英文摘要In this paper, we simulate increasing Rayleigh number from 10(4) to 10(7) to observe its influence on thermal convection in Cartesian and cylindrical coordinate respectively. The numerical examples prove that the range of radius of mantle plume is from 90 to 210 kilometer and the larger the Rayleigh number, the narrower and faster the mantle plume. Our results suggest that the viscosity of mantle is about 3.8 X 10(21) Pa.s and the speed of mantle plume is about 2.5 cm/a, according to the radius of Inner Zone of Emeishan mantle plume.
