Dependence on Reynolds number of high-order moments of velocity derivatives in isotropic turbulence

Saffman, P. G.

Abstract

The results of a heuristic model of the fine scale structure of homogeneous turbulence are presented. Predictions are made about the way in which flatness and skewness factors of arbitrary order depend upon the Reynolds number of the turbulence.
