An alternative view on dissipation in turbulent flows
read the original abstract
An original experimental setup has been elaborated in order to get a better view of turbulent flows in a von Karman geometry. The availability of a very fast camera allowed to follow in time the evolution of the flows. A surprising finding is that the development of smaller whorls ceases earlier than expected and the aspect of the flows remains the same above Reynolds number of a few thousand. This fact provides an explanation of the constancy of the reduced dissipation in the same range without the need of singularity. Its cause could be in relation with the same type of behavior observed in a rotating frame.
