Competition between rotation and turbulence in superfluidHe
Two types of vortex states have been much studied in superfluid He. The first is the vortex array in a rotating container. The second is the vortex tangle in turbulent flow. An experiment attempt to combine these two states by rotating a counterflow was attempted years ago. The data suggest the existence of different flow regimes separated by instabilities, but a theoretical interpretation is s...
متن کاملOn developed superfluid turbulence
Superfluid turbulence is governed by two dimensionless parameters. One of them is the intrinsic parameter q which characterizes the relative value of the friction force acting on a vortex with respect to the non-dissipative forces. The inverse parameter q−1 plays the same role as the Reynolds number Re = UR/ν in classical hydrodynamics. It marks the transition between the ”laminar” and turbulen...
متن کاملSuperfluid neutron star turbulence
We analyse the implications of superfluid turbulence for neutron star physics. We begin by extending our previous results for the mutual friction force for a straight vortex array to account for the self-induced flow which arises when the vortices are curved. We then discuss Vinen’s phenomenological model for isotropic turbulence, and derive the associated (Gorter-Mellink) form for the mutual f...
متن کاملShell Models of Superfluid Turbulence
Superfluid helium consists of two inter-penetrating fluids, a viscous normal fluid and an inviscid superfluid, coupled by a mutual friction. We develop a two-fluid shell model to study superfluid turbulence and investigate the energy spectra and the balance of fluxes between the two fluids in a steady state. At sufficiently low temperatures a ’bottle-neck’ develops at high wavenumbers suggestin...
متن کاملEnhancement of intermittency in superfluid turbulence.
We consider the intermittent behavior of superfluid turbulence in (4)He. Because of the similarity in the nonlinear structure of the two-fluid model of superfluidity and the Euler and Navier-Stokes equations, one expects the scaling exponents of the structure functions to be the same as in classical turbulence for temperatures close to the superfluid transition T(λ) and also for T << T(λ). This...
