Yakhot's model of strong turbulence: A generalization of scaling models of turbulence
arXiv:cond-mat/0403496 · doi:10.1007/s10955-011-0345-1
Abstract
We report on some implications of the theory of turbulence developed by V. Yakhot [V. Yakhot, Phys. Rev. E {\bf 57}(2) (1998)]. In particular we focus on the expression for the scaling exponents $ζ_{n}$. We show that Yakhot's result contains three well known scaling models as special cases, namely K41, K62 and the theory by V. L'vov and I. Procaccia [V. L'vov & I. Procaccia, Phys. Rev. E {\bf 62}(6) (2000)]. The model furthermore yields a theoretical justification for the method of extended self--similarity (ESS).
