Scale Dependent Intermittency and Conformal Invariance in Turbulence
We present a conformal theory for intermittent scalar fields. As an example, we consider the energy flux from large to small scales in the developed turbulent flow. The conformal correlation functions are found in the inertial range of scales. In the simplest case, the theory leads to the log-normal model. Parameters of the model are expressed via integrals of the conformal correlation function...
متن کاملIntermittency Effects in Rotating Decaying Turbulence
Rotation modulates turbulence causing columnar structuring of a turbulent flow in case of sufficiently strong rotation. This yields significant changes in the flow characteristics and dispersion properties, which makes rotational turbulence modulation particularly relevant in the context of atmospheric and oceanic flows. Here we investigate the canonical flow of turbulence in a periodic box, su...
متن کاملScale resolved intermittency in turbulence
The deviations Scm (“intermittency corrections”) from classical (“K41”) scaling c,==m/3 of the mth moments ( 1 u(p) I”) in high Reynolds number turbulence are calculated, extending a method to approximately solve the Navier-Stokes equation described earlier. It is suggested to introduce the notion of scale resolved intermittency corrections Sk,(p), because these &L&(p) are found to be large in ...
متن کاملSmall-scale intermittency in anisotropic turbulence.
Isotropic, rotating, and stratified turbulent flows are analyzed using a scale- and direction-dependent flatness. The anisotropy of the spatial fluctuations of the energy distribution can hereby be quantified for different length scales. This measure allows one to distinguish between longitudinal and transversal intermittency as well as between horizontal and vertical intermittency. The differe...
متن کاملIntermittency and scale-dependent statistics in fully developed turbulence.
Fully developed homogeneous isotropic turbulent fields, computed by direct numerical simulation, are compared to divergence-free random fields having the same energy spectrum and either the same helicity spectrum as that of the turbulent data, or vanishing helicity. We show that the scale-dependent velocity flatness quantifies the spatial variability of the energy spectrum. The flatness exhibit...
