چکیده
We adress the problem of interactions between the longitudinal velocity increment and the energy dissipation rate in fully developed turbulence. The coupling between these two quantities is experimentally investigated by the theory of stochastic Markovian processes. The so–called Markov analysis allows for a precise characterization of the joint statistical properties of velocity increment and energy dissipation. In particular, it is possible to determine the differential equation that governs the evolution along scales of the joint probability density of these two quantities. The properties of this equation provide interesting new insights into the coupling between energy dissipation and velocity incrementas leading to small scale intermittency.

We analyze stellar convection with the aid of 3D hydrodynamic simulations, introducing the turbulent cascade into our theoretical analysis. We devise closures of the Reynolds-decomposed mean field equations by simple physical modeling of the simulations (we relate temperature and density fluctuations via coefficients); the procedure (CABS, Convection Algorithm Based on Simulations) is terrestri...

In the present work, a numerical simulation of two parallel turbulent jets was performed. The simulations were carried out by using the standard, the standard and the RSM models. A parametric study was also presented to determine the effect of the nozzles spacing and velocity ratio on the axial and transverse positions of the merge and combined points. Correlations between the various paramet...
متن کاملA Model of Turbulence in Magnetized Plasmas: Implications for the Dissipation Range in the Solar Wind
This paper studies the turbulent cascade of magnetic energy in weakly collisional magnetized plasmas. A cascade model is presented, based on the assumptions of local nonlinear energy transfer in wavenumber space, critical balance between linear propagation and nonlinear interaction times, and the applicability of linear dissipation rates for the nonlinearly turbulent plasma. The model follows t...

In this paper, using vortex blob method (VBM), turbulent flow in a channel is studied and physical concepts of turbulence are obtained and discussed. At first, time-averaged velocities, and , and then their fluctuations are calculated. To clarify turbulence structures, velocity fluctuations and are plotted. It is observed that turbulence structures occupy different positions and move with con...
