Fully Developed Turbulence and the Multifractal Conjecture
نویسنده
چکیده
We review the Parisi-Frisch [1] MultiFractal formalism for Navier– Stokes turbulence with particular emphasis on the issue of statistical fluctuations of the dissipative scale. We do it for both Eulerian and Lagrangian Turbulence. We also show new results concerning the application of the formalism to the case of Shell Models for turbulence. The latter case will allow us to discuss the issue of Reynolds number dependence and the role played by vorticity and vortex filaments in real turbulent flows.

Universal Multifractal Properties of the Small Scale Intermittency in Anisotropic and Inhomogeneous Turbulence
The notion of self-similar energy cascades and multifractality has long since been connected with fully developed, homogeneous and isotropic turbulence. We introduce a number of amendments to the standard methods for analysing the multifractal properties of the energy dissipation field of a turbulent flow. We conjecture that the scaling assumption for the moments of the energy dissipation rate ...
متن کاملParametric study of a viscoelastic RANS turbulence model in the fully developed channel flow
One of the newest of viscoelastic RANS turbulence models for drag reducing channel flow with polymer additives is studied in different flow and rheological properties. In this model, finitely extensible nonlinear elastic-Peterlin (FENE-P) constitutive model is used to describe the viscoelastic effect of polymer solution and turbulence model is developed in the k-ϵ-(ν^2 ) ̅-f framework. The geome...

In the context of random multiplicative cascade processes, we derive analytical solutions for oneand twopoint cumulants with restored translational invariance. On taking ratios of cumulants in ln ε, geometrical effects due to spatial averaging cancel out. These ratios can successfully distinguish between splitting functions while multifractal scaling exponents and multiplier distributions cannot.
متن کاملQuantifying the Effects of Atmospheric Stability on the Multifractal Spectrum of Turbulence
Over the past decade, several studies suggested possible analogy between price dynamics in the foreign exchange market and atmospheric turbulent flows. Such analogies suggest that applications in business and industry can directly benefit from detailed quantification of the scale-hierarchy existing in fully developed turbulent flows. Numerous studies have already demonstrated the multifractal p...
متن کاملMultifractal statistics of Lagrangian velocity and acceleration in turbulence.
The statistical properties of velocity and acceleration fields along the trajectories of fluid particles transported by a fully developed turbulent flow are investigated by means of high resolution direct numerical simulations. We present results for Lagrangian velocity structure functions, the acceleration probability density function, and the acceleration variance conditioned on the instantan...
