Taylor's frozen-flow hypothesis in Burgers turbulence.

چکیده
By detailed analytical treatment of the shock dynamics in the Burgers turbulence with large scale forcing we calculate the velocity structure functions between pairs of points displaced both in time and space. Our analytical treatment verifies the so-called Taylor's frozen-flow hypothesis without relying on any closure and under very general assumptions. We discuss the limitation of the hypothesis and show that it is valid up to time scales smaller than the correlation time scale of temporal velocity correlation function. We support the analytical calculation by performing numerical simulation of the periodically kicked Burgers equation.

Small-scale turbulent fluctuations beyond Taylor's frozen-flow hypothesis.
The space-time cross-correlation function C(T)(r,τ) of local temperature fluctuations in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection is obtained from simultaneous two-point time series measurements. The obtained C(T)(r,τ) is found to have the scaling form C(T)(r(E),0) with r(E)=[(r-Uτ)(2)+V(2)τ(2)](1/2), where U and V are two characteristic velocities associated with the mean and rms velocities of the...
متن کاملWave-number-frequency spectrum for turbulence from a random sweeping hypothesis with mean flow.
We derive the energy spectrum in wave-number-frequency space for turbulent flows based on Kraichnan's idealized random sweeping hypothesis with additional mean flow, which yields the instantaneous energy spectrum multiplied by a Gaussian frequency distribution. The model spectrum has two adjustable parameters, the mean flow velocity and the sweeping velocity, and has the property that the power...
متن کاملElectro-magneto-hydrodynamics Flows of Burgers' Fluids in Cylindrical Domains with Time Exponential Memory
This paper investigates the axial unsteady flow of a generalized Burgers’ fluid with fractional constitutive equation in a circular micro-tube, in presence of a time-dependent pressure gradient and an electric field parallel to flow direction and a magnetic field perpendicular on the flow direction. The mathematical model used in this work is based on a time-nonlocal constitutive equation for s...
متن کاملSome Remarks on Scaling and Universality in Turbulence
The relation between universality and temporal and spatial scaling of structurefunctions and moments of the coarse-grained energy dissipation in turbulence is studied for flows where the Taylor Frozen Flow Hypothesis holds exactly. To account for observed deviations from a strict scaling law, we conclude that non-constant scaling exponents depend on the mean flow U . Furthermore, spatial and te...
متن کاملInstanton theory of Burgers shocks and intermittency.
A Lagrangian approach to Burgers turbulence is carried out along the lines of the field theoretical Martin-Siggia-Rose formalism of stochastic hydrodynamics. We derive, from an analysis based on the hypothesis of unbroken Galilean invariance, the asymptotic form of the probability distribution function of negative velocity differences. The origin of Burgers intermittency is found to rely on the...
