Shell model for quasi-two-dimensional turbulence.
We discuss the possibility to introduce geometrical constraints in shell models of turbulence in order to mimic the turbulent dynamics that takes place in fluid layers with large aspect ratio. By using a scale-dependent set of coupling parameters, we are able to resolve both scales larger and smaller than a geometrical dimension of the flow. The proposed model is able to resolve with high accur...
متن کاملNonextensive statistical mechanics for rotating quasi-two-dimensional turbulence
We have conducted experiments on an asymmetrically forced quasi-two-dimensional turbulent flow in a rapidly rotating annulus. Assuming conservation of potential enstrophy and energy, we maximize a nonextensive entropy function to obtain the azimuthally averaged vorticity as a function of radial position. The predicted vorticity profile is in good accord with the observations. A nonextensive for...
متن کاملInverse cascade regime in shell models of two-dimensional turbulence.
We consider shell models that display an inverse energy cascade similar to two-dimensional turbulence (together with a direct cascade of an enstrophylike invariant). Previous attempts to construct such models ended negatively, stating that shell models give rise to a "quasiequilibrium" situation with equipartition of the energy among the shells. We show analytically that the quasiequilibrium st...
متن کاملShell model for buoyancy-driven turbulence.
In this paper we present a unified shell model for stably stratified and convective turbulence. Numerical simulation of this model for stably stratified flow shows Bolgiano-Obukhbov scaling in which the kinetic energy spectrum varies as k(-11/5). The shell model of convective turbulence yields Kolmogorov's spectrum. These results are consistent with the energy flux and energy feed due to buoyan...
متن کاملAnisotropic shell model of turbulence.
An anisotropic shell model has been proposed for two-dimensional (2D) turbulence. It is similar to the 2D version of the Gledzer-Ohkitani-Yamada model but with the angular variable in wave-number space divided into three distinct directions representing structures elongated in different directions. In the case when the drive is isotropic the usual isotropic solution is recovered as the fixed po...
