contents We investigate spatiotemporal chaos in Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) confined by a 1D harmonic trap using Gross-Pitaevskii equation simulations. The chaos arises from nonlinear mixing of ground and excited states, confirmed by positive Lyapunov exponents. By sampling the density field at intervals matching the center-of-mass oscillation period, we analyze the density structure function. Both spatial and temporal density structure functions reveal Kolmogorov-like scaling through extended self-similarity (ESS). Our findings suggest that ESS and density structure functions provide experimentally accessible tools to explore spatiotemporal chaos and turbulence-like behavior in BECs.
