New relations for correlation functions in Navier-Stokes turbulence

Chaotic Dynamics 2011-03-28 v2 High Energy Physics - Theory

Abstract

We consider the steady-state statistics of turbulence sustained by a large-scale force. The Kolmogorov flux relation (4/5-law) is shown to be a particular case of the general relation on the current-density correlation function. Using that, we derive an analog of the flux relation for compressible turbulence and a new exact relation for incompressible turbulence.
