Turbulence

Synopsis

Shows the following aspects of turbulence: effect of Reynolds number on inception, increased pressure drop in pipe-flow, efficient mixing, turbulent transport of momentum and scaler properties, Reynolds stress, influence of Reynolds stress, influence of Reynolds number on fully-developed turbulent flows, turbulent energy cascade, isotropy and similarity of small-scale motions in diverse turbulent fields, effects of buoyancy, the non-Gaussian intermittent character of the small-scale structure at high Reynolds number.
