Quantum turbulence in propagating superfluid vortex front
V. B. Eltsov, A. I. Golov, R. de Graaf +4
We present experimental, numerical and theoretical studies of a vortex front propagating into a region of vortex-free flow of rotating superfluid 3He-B. We show that the nature of…
Analytical Model of the Time Developing Turbulent Boundary Layer
Victor S. L'vov, Anna Pomyalov, Antonino Ferrante +1
We present an analytical model for the time-developing turbulent boundary layer (TD-TBL) over a flat plate. The model provides explicit formulae for the temporal behavior of the wa…
Universal Model of Finite-Reynolds Number Turbulent Flow in Channels and Pipes
Victor S. L'vov, Itamar Procaccia, Oleksii Rudenko
In this Letter we suggest a simple and physically transparent analytical model of the pressure driven turbulent wall-bounded flows at high but finite Reynolds numbers Re. The model…
Colloquium: Theory of Drag Reduction by Polymers in Wall Bounded Turbulence
Itamar Procaccia, Victor S. L'vov, Roberto Benzi
The flow of fluids in channels, pipes or ducts, as in any other wall-bounded flow (like water along the hulls of ships or air on airplanes) is hindered by a drag, which increases m…
