On the velocity distribution in homogeneous isotropic turbulence: correlations and deviations from Gaussianity
We investigate the single-point probability density function of the velocity in threedimensional stationary and decaying homogeneous isotropic turbulence. To this end, we apply the statistical framework of the Lundgren–Monin–Novikov hierarchy combined with conditional averaging, identifying the quantities that determine the shape of the probability density function. In this framework, the condi...
متن کاملVelocity autocorrelations of decaying isotropic homogeneous turbulence
Velocity autocorrelations and the mean-square displacements of fluid particles are obtained for decaying, isotropic homogeneous turbulence by numerical simulation of the flow field, using 1283 and 256’ grids, and tracking several tens of thousands of fluid particles, using a third-order interpolation scheme. A self-preserving Lagrangian velocity autocorrelation coefficient is found in terms of ...

متن کاملSystematic deviations from Gaussianity in models of quasigeostrophic turbulence
Microcanonical simulations of spectral truncations of the barotropic quasigeostrophic model are utilized to demonstrate systematic departures from Gaussianity in these models. Truncated equations conserve both the energy and the enstrophy, and predictions of the equilibrium statistical theory are Gaussian for all values of geophysical parameters. Nevertheless, nonzero topographic modes induce s...
متن کاملSpinodal decomposition in homogeneous and isotropic turbulence.
We study the competition between domain coarsening in a symmetric binary mixture below critical temperature and turbulent fluctuations. We find that the coarsening process is arrested in the presence of turbulence. The physics of the process shares remarkable similarities with the behavior of diluted turbulent emulsions and the arrest length scale can be estimated with an argument similar to th...
