Experimental characterization of extreme events of inertial dissipation in a turbulent swirling flow
The classical description of viscous turbulent flows is based on a formulation of Navier-Stokes equations which assumes its solutions to remain smooth at all times. Saw et al. characterize velocity fields in experimental turbulent flows at dissipative scale, and link the results to the singularities...
