The Taylor-Reynolds and Reynolds number (Reλ and Re) dependence of the dimensionless energy dissipation rate cǫ = ǫL/u 3 1,rms is derived for statistically stationary isotropic turbulence, employing the results of a variable range mean field theory. Here, ǫ is the energy dissipation rate, L is the (fixed) outer length scale, and u1,rms a rms velocity component. Our fit-parameter free results fo...

Effects of global delayed feedback on diffusion-induced turbulence are studied in a realistic model of catalytic oxidation of carbon monoxide on Pt(110). Spatiotemporal patterns resulting from numerical simulations of this model are identified and analyzed using a transformation into the phase and the amplitude of local oscillations. We find that chemical turbulence can be efficiently controlle...

Numerical simulation of plasma turbulence in the Large Plasma Device LAPD W. Gekelman, H. Pfister, Z. Lucky et al., Rev. Sci. Instrum. 62, 2875 1991 is presented. The model, implemented in the BOUndary Turbulence code M. Umansky, X. Xu, B. Dudson et al., Contrib. Plasma Phys. 180, 887 2009 , includes three-dimensional 3D collisional fluid equations for plasma density, electron parallel momentum...

A wind tunnel investigation was performed to study the flow field over a 70° swept sharped edge delta wing model at high angles of attack. The experiments were conducted in the subsonic wind tunnel at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Sharif University of Technology. Velocity profiles have been measured using a special pitot tube and hot wire anemometer at angles of attacks of 10 to 35 ...

The flow and turbulence in an IC engine cylinder were studied using the SSG variant of the Reynolds stress turbulence closure model. In-cylinder turbulence is characterized by strong turbulence anisotropy and flow rotation, which aid in air-fuel mixing. It is argued that solving the differential transport equations for each turbulent stress tensor component, as implied by second-moment closures...

The Hasegawa-Wakatani equations, coupling plasma density, and electrostatic potential through an approximation to the physics of parallel electron motions, are a simple model that describes resistive drift wave turbulence. Numerical analyses of bifurcation phenomena in the model are presented, that provide new insights into the interactions between turbulence and zonal flows in the tokamak plas...
