A thermodynamical approach to dissipation range turbulence

Abstract

A model to explain the statistics of the velocity gradients in the dissipation range of a turbulent flow is presented. The experimentally observed non-gaussian statistics is theoretically predicted by means of a thermodynamical analogy using the maximum entropy principle of ordinary statistical mechanics.
