Turbulence kinetic energy budget and conditional sampling of momentum, scalar, and intermittency fluxes in thermally stratified wind farms

open access: yesJournal of turbulence, 2019
A description of the turbulence kinetic energy budget is investigated to understand the dynamics and turbulence energy transfer between the atmospheric boundary layer and large wind farms.

Turbulent drag reduction in magnetohydrodynamic and quasi-static magnetohydrodynamic turbulence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In hydrodynamic turbulence, the kinetic energy injected at large scales cascades to the inertial range, leading to a constant kinetic energy flux. In contrast, in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence, a fraction of kinetic energy is transferred to the magnetic energy.

Lidar Studies of Wind Turbulence in the Stable Atmospheric Boundary Layer

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
The kinetic energy of turbulence, the dissipation rate of turbulent energy, and the integral scale of turbulence in the stable atmospheric boundary layer at the location heights of low-level jets (LLJs) have been measured with a coherent Doppler light ...

Estimating Turbulence Kinetic Energy Dissipation Rates in the Numerically Simulated Stratocumulus Cloud-Top Mixing Layer: Evaluation of Different Methods

open access: yesJournal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 2019
In this work, direct numerical simulation (DNS) of the stratocumulus cloud-top mixing layer is used to test various approaches to estimate the turbulence kinetic energy (TKE) dissipation rate ε from one-dimensional (1D) intersections that resemble ...

Sudden viscous dissipation of compressing turbulence [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. Lett. 116, 105004 (2016), 2015
Compression of turbulent plasma can amplify the turbulent kinetic energy, if the compression is fast compared to the viscous dissipation time of the turbulent eddies. A sudden viscous dissipation mechanism is demonstrated, whereby this amplified turbulent kinetic energy is rapidly converted into thermal energy, suggesting a new paradigm for fast ...

Fuzzy Performance between Surface Fitting and Energy Distribution in Turbulence Runner

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2012
Because the application of surface fitting algorithms exerts a considerable fuzzy influence on the mathematical features of kinetic energy distribution, their relation mechanism in different external conditional parameters must be quantitatively analyzed.

Scaling the Decay of Turbulence Kinetic Energy in the Free-Convective Boundary Layer

open access: yesBoundary-layer Meteorology, 2019
We investigate the scaling for decaying turbulence kinetic energy (TKE) in the free-convective boundary layer, from the time the surface heat flux starts decaying, until a few hours after it has vanished.

Mean-field dynamo due to spatiotemporal fluctuations of the turbulent kinetic energy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 973, A29 (2023), 2023
In systems where the standard $\alpha$ effect is inoperative, one often explains the existence of mean magnetic fields by invoking the `incoherent $\alpha$ effect', which appeals to fluctuations of the mean kinetic helicity at a mesoscale. Most previous studies, while considering fluctuations in the mean kinetic helicity, treated the mean turbulent ...

Linking the Langevin equation to scaling properties of space plasma turbulence at sub-ion scales

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2023
Current understanding of the kinetic-scale turbulence in weakly collisional plasmas still remains elusive. We employ a general framework in which the turbulent energy transfer is envisioned as a scale-to-scale Langevin process.

Turbulence kinetic energy dissipation rates estimated from concurrent UAV and MU radar measurements

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2018
We tested models commonly used for estimating turbulence kinetic energy dissipation rates $$\varepsilon$$ε from very high frequency stratosphere–troposphere radar data.
