M ay 2 00 5 Transverse velocities , intermittency and asymmetry in fully developed turbulence
Self-similar properties of turbulence, suggested by Kolmogorov [2], have been intensively studied for a long time. The theory predicted simple scaling for the longitudinal velocity increments ur = u(x+r)−u(x), namely, 〈|ur| 〉 ∼ r. It became clear, however, that there are corrections to these scalings, usually attributed to intermittency. The only exception is the so-called 4/5thKolmogorov law [...
متن کاملIntermittency and scale-dependent statistics in fully developed turbulence.
Fully developed homogeneous isotropic turbulent fields, computed by direct numerical simulation, are compared to divergence-free random fields having the same energy spectrum and either the same helicity spectrum as that of the turbulent data, or vanishing helicity. We show that the scale-dependent velocity flatness quantifies the spatial variability of the energy spectrum. The flatness exhibit...
متن کاملUniversality in fully developed turbulence.
We extend the numerical simulations of She et al. (1993)] of highly turbulent ow with 15 Taylor-Reynolds number Re 200 up to Re 45 000, employing a reduced wave vector set method (introduced earlier) to approximately solve the Navier-Stokes equation. First, also for these extremely high Reynolds numbers Re , the energy spectra as well as the higher moments { when scaled by the spectral intensit...
متن کاملIntermittency and non-Gaussian fluctuations of the global energy transfer in fully developed turbulence.
We address the experimentally observed non-Gaussian fluctuations for the energy injected into a closed turbulent flow at fixed Reynolds number. We propose that the power fluctuations mirror the internal kinetic energy fluctuations. Using a stochastic cascade model, we construct the excess kinetic energy as the sum over the energy transfers at different levels of the cascade. We find an asymmetr...
متن کاملRelative dispersion in fully developed turbulence: the Richardson's law and intermittency corrections.
Relative dispersion in fully developed turbulence is investigated by means of direct numerical simulations. Lagrangian statistics is found to be compatible with Richardson description although small systematic deviations are found. The value of the Richardson constant is estimated as C2 approximately equal to 0.55, in a close agreement with recent experimental findings [S. Ott and J. Mann, J. F...
