We develop a computational model of quantum turbulence decay employing a kinematic prescription for the normal fluid. We find that after an initial transient, the length of the vortex tangle L decreases and for large times obeys a scaling…

In the thermally driven superfluid He-4 turbulence, the counterflow velocity $U_{\rm ns}$ partially decouples the normal and superfluid turbulent velocities. Recently we suggested [J. Low Temp. Phys. 187, 497 (2017)] that this decoupling…
