“…which resembles the approximation proposed by Bradshaw a n d o r k e r~~' for the diffusion term of Eqn (46). The merit of Eqn (115) is that 3 now becomes a closure variable to the k -e -3 model; thus t h e s t a ndard k--E-3 model, by using Eqn (115) …”

“…This energy is then transferred to neighbouring eddies of smaller scales continuing to smaller and smaller scales (larger and larger velocity gradients), the smallest scale being reached when the eddies lose energy by the direct action of viscous stresses which finally convert it into internal thermal energy on the smallest-sized eddies. 46 It is important to note that viscosity does not play any role in the stretching process nor does it determine the amount of dissipated energy; it only determines the smallest scale at which dissipation takes place. It is the large eddies (comparable with the linear dimensions of the flow domain), characterizing the large-scale motion, that determine the rate at which the mean flow kinetic energy is fed into turbulent motion, and can be passed on to smaller scales and be finally dissipated.…”

“…A framework for the description of fully-developed turbulent flows has not arisen, except for the notion that the fractal dimension of dissipative structures is assumed to represent the .total (reduced) number of degrees of freedom in the system. w compresscd S 'w; Figure 6.1; Schematic diagram of vortex stretching showing the compression and stretch ing of fluid elements (Frost and Bitte, 1977)…”

“…In a very simple way, turbulence is frequently described as an energy cascade (or eddy cascade); where the energy is put into the system at large length scales. The cascade of energy then takes place predominantly from neighboring eddies to neighboring eddies continuing to smaller and smaller length scales (larger and larger velocity gradients) through the mechanism of vortex stretching until viscosity finally dissipates the energy received by the smaller eddies (Frost and Bitte, 1977;and Voke and Collins, 1983).…”

“…These large eddies are inertia controlled and are very little affected by viscosity. Frost and Bitte (1977) called these "energy bearing anisotropic eddies". This range of eddies is most frequently referred to as the "production scale eddies".…”
