Large Scale Numerical Simulation for Superfluid Turbulence

Large Scale Numerical Simulation for Superfluid Turbulence

Large scale numerical simulation of quantum turbulence is performed by using 3-D time-dependent Gross-Pitaevskii equation. The energy spectrum obeying Kolmogorov law and large scale self-similar structure of quantum vortex tangle are found in a fully developed dumped turbulent state. Width of the inertial range becomes large depending on the system size of the simulation that is consistent with...

Entropic Lattice Boltzmann Method for Large Scale Turbulence Simulation

Recently, a minimal kinetic model for fluid flow, known as entropic lattice Boltzmann method, has been proposed for the simulation of isothermal hydrodynamic flows. At variance with previous Lattice Boltzmann methods, the entropic version permits to describe the non-linear dynamics of short scales in a controlled and stable way. In this paper, we provide the first numerical evidence that the en...

Scale-separation scheme for simulating superfluid turbulence: Kelvin-wave cascade.

A Kolmogorov-type cascade of Kelvin waves-the distortion waves on vortex lines-plays a key part in the relaxation of superfluid turbulence at low temperatures. We propose an efficient numeric scheme for simulating the Kelvin-wave cascade on a single vortex line. This idea is likely to be generalizable for a full-scale simulation of different regimes of superfluid turbulence. With the new scheme...

Numerical dissipation vs. subgrid-scale modelling for large eddy simulation

This study presents an alternative way to perform large eddy simulation based on a targeted numerical dissipation introduced by the discretization of the viscous term. It is shown that this regularisation technique is equivalent to the use of spectral vanishing viscosity. The flexibility of the method ensures high-order accuracy while controlling the level and spectral features of this purely n...
