On the origin of streaks in turbulent shear flows (English)
0 references
It is shown that the ideas of selective amplification and direct resonance, based on linear theory, do not provide a selection mechanism for the well-defined streak spacing of about 100 wall units (referred to as \(100^+\) hereafter) observed in wall-bounded turbulent shear flows. For the direct resonance theory, it is shown that the streaks are created by the nonlinear self-interaction of the vertical velocity rather than of the directly forced vertical vorticity. It is then proposed that the selection mechanism must be inherently nonlinear and correspond to a self-sustaining process. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0842.00048].
