Passive Scalars in Stratified Turbulence
The statistics of a passive scalar in randomly forced and strongly stratified turbulence is investigated by numerical simulations including a horizontal passive scalar mean gradient. We observe that horizontal isotropy of the passive scalar spectrum is satisfied in the inertial range. The spectrum has the form Eθ(kh) = Cθεθε −1/3 K k −5/3 h , where εθ, εK are the dissipation of scalar variance ...
متن کاملActive versus passive scalar turbulence.
Active and passive scalars transported by an incompressible two-dimensional conductive fluid are investigated. It is shown that a passive scalar displays a direct cascade towards the small scales while the active magnetic potential builds up large-scale structures in an inverse cascade process. Correlations between scalar input and particle trajectories are found to be responsible for those dra...
متن کاملPassive Tomography of Turbulence Strength
Turbulence is studied extensively in remote sensing, astronomy, meteorology, aerodynamics and fluid dynamics. The strength of turbulence is a statistical measure of local variations in the turbulent medium. It influences engineering decisions made in these domains. Turbulence strength (TS) also affects safety of aircraft and tethered balloons, and reliability of free-space electromagnetic relay...
متن کاملPassive scalar turbulence in high dimensions.
Exploiting a Lagrangian strategy we present a numerical study for both perturbative and nonperturbative regions of the Kraichnan advection model. The major result is the numerical assessment of the first-order 1/d expansion by Chertkov, Falkovich, Kolokolov, and Lebedev [Phys. Rev. E 52, 4924 (1995)] for the fourth-order scalar structure function in the limit of high dimension d's. In addition ...
متن کاملAn Intermittency Model For Passive-Scalar Turbulence
A phenomenological model for the inertial range scaling of passive-scalar turbulence is developed based on a bivariate log-Poisson model. An analytical formula of the scaling exponent for three-dimensional passive-scalar turbulence is deduced. The predicted scaling exponents are compared with experimental measurements, showing good agreement. 47.27.-i, 47.27.Gs Typeset using REVTEX 1 Submitted ...
