Large Scale Intermittency in the Atmospheric Boundary Layer
M. Kholmyansky ; L. Moriconi ; A. Tsinober ;
Date 3 May 2007
Subject Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)
AbstractWe find actual evidence, relying upon vorticity time series taken in a high Reynolds number atmospheric experiment, that to a very good approximation the surface boundary layer flow may be described, in a statistical sense and under certain regimes, as an advected ensemble of homogeneous turbulent systems, characterized by a lognormal distribution of fluctuating intensities. Our analysis suggests that usual direct numerical simulations of homogeneous and isotropic turbulence, performed at moderate Reynolds numbers, may play an important role in the study of turbulent boundary layer flows, if supplemented with appropriate statistical information concerned with the structure of large scale fluctuations.
