摘要
We address scaling in inhomogeneous and anisotropic turbulent flows by decomposing structure functions into their irreducible representation of the SO(3) symmetry group which are designated by j, m indices. Employing simulations of channel flows with Re-lambda approximate to 70 we demonstrate that different components characterized by different j display different scaling exponents, but for a given j these remain the same at different distances ham the wall. The j = 0 exponent agrees extremely well with high Re measurements of the scaling exponents, demonstrating the vitality of the SO(3) decomposition.
