三维流体层中的鲁棒逆能量级联和turbulence结构

Robust inverse energy cascade and turbulence structure in three-dimensional layers of fluid

D. Byrne, H. Xia, M. Shats

摘要:

在这里,我们报告的第一个证据的逆能量级联流占主导地位的三维运动。实验是在电磁驱动湍流的厚流体层中进行的。结果表明,如果层的自由表面不扰动,层的顶部表现为准二维的,并支持逆能量级联层的厚度无关。远低于表面的级联生存,即使在存在强大的三维涡流发展时,层深度超过一半的强迫尺度。在低底耗散的有界流中,逆能量级联导致在自由表面以下产生光谱凝聚。这种相干流可以破坏层中大部分的3D涡流,并在整个层厚度上增强流动的平面性。

英文摘要:

Here we report the first evidence of the inverse energy cascade in a flow dominated by 3D motions. Experiments are performed in thick fluid layers where turbulence is driven electromagnetically. It is shown that if the free surface of the layer is not perturbed, the top part of the layer behaves as quasi-2D and supports the inverse energy cascade regardless of the layer thickness. Well below the surface the cascade survives even in the presence of strong 3D eddies developing when the layer depth exceeds half the forcing scale. In a bounded flow at low bottom dissipation, the inverse energy cascade leads to the generation of a spectral condensate below the free surface. Such coherent flow can destroy 3D eddies in the bulk of the layer and enforce the flow planarity over the entire layer thickness.
