Analytic Study of Shell Models of Turbulence
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we study analytically the viscous ‘sabra’ shell model of energy turbulent cascade. We prove the global regularity of solutions and show that the shell model has finitely many asymptotic degrees of freedom, specifically: a finite dimensional global attractor and globally invariant inertial manifolds. Moreover, we establish the existence of exponentially decaying energy dissipation range for the sufficiently smooth forcing.

Analytical and Numerical Study of Certain Models of Turbulence
In my thesis I study two different models of turbulence. The first part of my research concerns the, so-called, shell models of turbulence. Shell models had attracted a lot of interest as useful phenomenological models that mimics certain features of the Navier-Stokes equations (NSE). The shell models capture different aspects of the real turbulent flows, such as the energy cascade, an anomalou...
متن کاملComparison of different turbulence models in a high pressure fuel jet
In this study, modeling of a fuel jet which has been injected by high pressure into a low-pressure tank are investigated. Due to the initial conditions and the geometry of this case and similar cases (like CNG injectors in internal combustion engines (ICE)), the barrel shocks and Mach disk are observed. Hence a turbulence and transient flow will be expected with lots of shocks and waves. Accord...
متن کاملStatistical Mechanics of Shell Models for 2D-Turbulence
We study shell models that conserve the analogues of energy and enstrophy, hence designed to mimic fluid turbulence in 2D. The main result is that the observed state is well described as a formal statistical equilibrium, closely
متن کاملAsymptotic formulae for the Lyapunov spectrum of fully-developed shell model turbulence
We study the scaling behavior of the Lyapunov spectra of a chaotic shell model for 3D turbulence. First, we quantify localization of the Lyapunov vectors in the wavenumber space by using the numerical results. Using dimensional arguments of Kolmogorov-type, we then deduce explicitly the asymptotic scaling behavior of the Lyapunov spectra. This in turn is confirmed by numerical results. This she...
متن کاملFlow Field Characteristics of an Aerospike Nozzle Using Different Turbulence Models
To improve the calculation of the flow properties of an aerospike nozzle, different turbulence models were investigated in this study. The primary shape of the nozzle plug is determined through utilizing an approximate method. The flow field is, then, simulated using the Navier-Stokes equations for compressible flows. The commercial computational fluid dynamics code Fluent is used to simulate t...
