Relaxation in two dimensions and the 'sinh-Poisson' equation
Abstract
Long-time states of a turbulent, decaying, two-dimensional, Navier-Stokes flow are shown numerically to relax toward maximum-entropy configurations, as defined by the "sinh-Poisson" equation. The large-scale Reynolds number is about 14,000, the spatial resolution is (512)-squared, the boundary conditions are spatially periodic, and the evolution takes place over nearly 400 large-scale eddy-turnover times.
