Local Wave Number Model for Inhomogeneous Two-Fluid Mixing

Nairita Pal, Ismael Boureima, Noah Braun +3

We present a study of a two-point spectral turbulence model (Local Wave-Number model or LWN model) for the Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) instability. The model outcomes are compared with st…

Two-point spectral model for variable-density homogeneous turbulence

Nairita Pal, Susan Kurien, Timothy Clark +2

We present a study of buoyancy-driven variable-density homogeneous turbulence, using a two-point spectral closure model. We compute the time-evolution of the spectral distribution…

Spectral Model of Non-Stationary, Inhomogeneous Turbulence

Andrew D. Bragg, Susan Kurien, Timothy T. Clark

We compare results from a spectral model for non-stationary, inhomogeneous turbulence (Besnard et al., Theor. Comp. Fluid. Dyn., vol. 8, pp 1-35, 1996) with Direct Numerical Simula…

Joint downscale fluxes of energy and potential enstrophy in rotating stratified Boussinesq flows

Hussein Aluie, Susan Kurien

We employ a coarse-graining approach to analyze nonlinear cascades in Boussinesq flows using high-resolution simulation data. We derive budgets which resolve the evolution of energ…

Scaling of high-wavenumber energy spectra in the unit aspect-ratio rotating Boussinesq system

Susan Kurien

Phenomenological and numerical studies of the small scale spectra of energy are presented for high Reynolds number rotating Boussinesq flows in unit aspect-ratio domains. We introd…

Hyperviscosity, Galerkin truncation and bottlenecks in turbulence

Uriel Frisch, Susan Kurien, Rahul Pandit +4

It is shown that the use of a high power of the Laplacian in the dissipative term of hydrodynamical equations leads asymptotically to truncated inviscid \textit{conservative} d…
