Quasi-static magnetohydrodynamic turbulence at high Reynolds number
We analyse the anisotropy of homogeneous turbulence in an electrically conducting fluid submitted to a uniform magnetic field, for low magnetic Reynolds number, in the quasi-static approximation. We interpret contradictory earlier predictions between linearized theory and simulations: in the linear limit, the kinetic energy of transverse velocity components, normal to the magnetic field, decays...
متن کاملAnisotropy of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence at low magnetic Reynolds number
Turbulent fluctuations in magnetohydrodynamic flows are known to become anisotropic under the action of a sufficiently strong magnetic field. We investigate this phenomenon in the case of low magnetic Reynolds number using direct numerical simulations and large eddy simulations of a forced flow in a periodic box. A series of simulations is performed with different strengths of the magnetic fiel...
متن کاملMHD turbulence at high Reynolds number
Scientific context Magnetic fields are important dynamically in a variety of situations in geophysics and astrophysics. Numerous observations are appearing, e.g. thanks to remote sensing and in particular to the CLUSTER ensemble of 4 satellites, allowing for an estimation of fields and of their derivatives in the Solar Wind close environment. In the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) approximation valid...
متن کاملHigh–Reynolds Number Wall Turbulence
We review wall-bounded turbulent flows, particularly high–Reynolds number, zero–pressure gradient boundary layers, and fully developed pipe and channel flows. It is apparent that the approach to an asymptotically high– Reynolds number state is slow, but at a sufficiently high Reynolds number the log law remains a fundamental part of the mean flow description. With regard to the coherent motions...
