Shear effects in nonhomogeneous turbulence
Motivated by recent experimental and numerical results, a simple unifying picture of intermittency in turbulent shear flows is suggested. Integral structure functions (ISF), taking into account explicitly the shear intensity, are introduced on phenomenological grounds. ISF can exhibit a universal scaling behavior, independent of the shear intensity. This picture is in satisfactory agreement wit...
متن کاملShear Turbulence: Onset and Structure
Figure 1: Reynolds’ 1883 experiment, still operating at the University of Manchester, UK. Water flows down a long pipe and ink is introduced at the pipe centerline. On the right are the original drawings showing the dye filament in laminar flow (a), and the rapid mixing of the dye and water when the Reynolds number is larger than about 2000 in (b). (c) shows details of vortical structures in tu...
متن کاملDerivative moments in stationary homogeneous shear turbulence
A statistically stationary and nearly homogeneous turbulent shear flow is established by an additional volume forcing in combination with stress-free boundary conditions in the shear direction. Both turbulent energy and enstrophy are stationary to a much better approximation than in previous simulations that use remeshing. The temporal fluctuations decrease with increasing Reynolds number. Ener...
متن کاملDynamo efficiency with shear in helical turbulence
To elucidate the influence of shear flow on the generation of magnetic field (the dynamo effect), we study the kinematic limit where the magnetic field does not backreact on the velocity field. By non-perturbatively incorporating the effect of shear in a helically forced turbulence, we show that turbulence intensity and turbulent transport coefficients (turbulent viscosity, α and β effect) are ...
متن کاملSupertransient magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in Keplerian shear flows.
A subcritical transition to turbulence in magnetized Keplerian shear flows is investigated by using a statistical approach. Three-dimensional numerical simulations of the shearing box equations with zero net magnetic flux are employed to determine the transition from decaying to sustained turbulence as a function of the magnetic Reynolds number R{m}. The results reveal no clear transition to su...
