Resonant enhancement of turbulent energy dissipation.
We periodically modulate a turbulent wind-tunnel flow with an active grid. We find a resonant enhancement of the mean turbulent dissipation rate at a modulation frequency which equals the large-eddy turnover rate. Thus, we find the best frequency to inject energy into a turbulent flow. The resonant response is characterized by the emergence of vortical structures in the flow and depends on the ...
متن کاملNumerical investigations of the turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate in the Rhine region of freshwater influence
The turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate, ε, in tidal seas is maximum at the bottom during full flood and during full ebb, i.e. when tidal currents are strongest. In coastal regions with tides similar to a Kelvin wave, this coincides with high water and low water. If there is a freshwater source at the coast, stratification in such a region will be most stable at high water and least at lo...
متن کاملLow-wavenumber forcing and turbulent energy dissipation
In many Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) of turbulence researchers inject power into the fluid at large scales and then observe how it “propagates” to the small scales [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12]. One such type of stirring is to take the force f(x, t) to be proportional to the projection of the velocity u(x, t) of the flow onto its lowest Fourier modes, while keeping the rate of i...
متن کاملDianeutral Upwelling Without Dissipation of Kinetic Energy
Estimates of the upwelling of bottom and deep water have recently been used to deduce the magnitude of area-averaged mixing activity and the required dissipation of kinetic energy that is input by winds and tides. Here we raise questions about this link between upwelling and the dissipation of energy. Several processes are discussed, each of which lead to the upwelling of water across neutral d...
متن کاملKinetic dissipation and anisotropic heating in a turbulent collisionless plasma
The kinetic evolution of the Orszag–Tang vortex is studied using collisionless hybrid simulations. In magnetohydrodynamics MHD this configuration leads rapidly to broadband turbulence. At large length scales, the evolution of the hybrid simulations is very similar to MHD, with magnetic power spectra displaying scaling similar to a Kolmogorov scaling of 5/3. At small scales, differences from MHD...
