A modified Lin equation for the energy balance in isotropic turbulence

Fluid Dynamics 2020-07-28 v1

Abstract

A new form of the well known Lin equation for the energy balance in isotropic turbulence is given which takes account of the filtered-partitioned transfer spectra which were used to resolve the scale paradox. It is argued that this new formulation provides a new starting point for both theoretical and numerical methods which may lead to a better understanding of the underlying energy processes in turbulence.
