isotropic turbulence
1Homogeneous Isotropic Turbulence — Approximation used in many fluid dynamical models, corresponding to an idealized state where the turbulent flow has two properties: # It is isotropic # It is homogeneous …
2Turbulence — In fluid dynamics, turbulence or turbulent flow is a fluid regime characterized by chaotic, stochastic property changes. This includes low momentum diffusion, high momentum convection, and rapid variation of pressure and velocity in space and… …
3Magnetohydrodynamic turbulence — Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) deals with what is a quasi neutral fluid with very high conductivity. The fluid approximation implies that the we focus at macro length and time scales which are much larger than the collision length and collision time… …
4Polymer turbulence drag reduction — In 1948 Toms discovered by experiments that the addition of a small amount of polymer into a turbulent Newtonian solvent (parts per million by weight), whichresults in a Non Newtonian fluid solution, can reduce the skin fictional drag on a… …

7FENE-P — is a continuous model of polymer. The name FENE stands for finitely extensible nonlinear elastic while P stands for the closure proposed by Peterlin. It takes the dumbbell version of the FENE model and assumed the Peterline statistical closure… …

9Astronomical seeing — Schematic diagram illustrating how optical wavefronts from a distant star may be perturbed by a layer of turbulent mixing in the atmosphere. The vertical scale of the wavefronts plotted is highly exaggerated. Astronomical seeing refers to the… …
