Abstract:
We investigate the response of energy flux in isotropic turbulence to step-function like perturbation in external forcing at large length scales.
From both physical experiments and direct numerical simulations, we measured the evolution of the Eulerian velocity structure functions, such as $D_{LL}(r)$, $D_{NN}(r)$, before and after the perturbation in forcing.
In both cases, we observed the cascade of the energy excess at large scales cascade through scales to the dissipative range, which can be used to study the dynamics of the cascade, and in particular, to estimate the relevant time scales.
