The issue of intermittency in numerical solutions of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations is addressed using a new set of variables whose evolution has been calculated through three sets of numerical simulations. These variables are defined on a periodic box [0,L]3 such that Dm(t)=(ϖ−10Ωm)αm where αm=2m/(4m−3) \& the set of frequencies Ωm for 1≤m≤∞ are defined by Ωm(t)=(L−3\I|\boldmathω|2mdV)1/2m\,; the fixed frequency ϖ0=νL−2. All three simulations unexpectedly show that the Dm are ordered for m=1,...,9 such that Dm+1<Dm. Moreover, the Dm squeeze together such that Dm+1/Dm↗1 as m increases. This regime is shown to connected to the depletion of nonlinearity. The first simulation is of very anisotropic decaying turbulence\,; the second pair is of decaying isotropic turbulence from random initial conditions \& of forced isotropic turbulence at constant Grashof number\,; the third 40963 simulation is of very high Reynolds number forced, stationary, isotropic turbulence. |
