The return to isotropy of homogeneous turbulence

Lumley, John L., Newman, Gary R.·1977·Journal of Fluid Mechanics

Abstract

The return to isotropy of homogeneous turbulence without mean velocity gradients is attacked by considering changes to be slow relative to turbulence time scales. This single assumption permits the problem to be cast as one of finding the form of three invariant functions. Examination of limiting behaviour for large Reynolds number and small anisotropy, as well as small Reynolds number and arbitrary anisotropy, places restrictions on the form of the functions. Realizability conditions (requiring that energies be non-negative) reduce the problem to two functions subject to further restrictions. A convenient interpolation form is found for the functions, satisfying all the restrictions, and it is shown that predictions based on this are in excellent agreement with all available data.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
