作为阻尼波的被动标量扩散

Passive scalar diffusion as a damped wave

Axel Brandenburg, Petri Käpylä, Amjed Mohammed

摘要:

三维湍流模拟表明,湍流均方根速度是湍流扩散速度的上限。这与磁扩散非常相似,其中最大扩散速度是光速。从数学上讲,这是由于包含法拉第位移电流,它确保了因果关系的遵守。在湍流扩散中,当使用最小τ近似时,很自然地出现类似于位移电流的项。模拟证实了这样一个长期的存在,并给出了其相对重要性的定量测量。

英文摘要:

Three-dimensional turbulence simulations are used to show that the turbulent root mean square velocity is an upper bound of the speed of turbulent diffusion. There is a close analogy to magnetic diffusion where the maximum diffusion speed is the speed of light. Mathematically, this is caused by the inclusion of the Faraday displacement current which ensures that causality is obeyed. In turbulent diffusion, a term similar to the displacement current emerges quite naturally when the minimal tau approximation is used. Simulations confirm the presence of such a term and give a quantitative measure of its relative importance.
