Asymmetric time correlations in turbulent shear flows
Abstract
Cross correlations between normal and downstream velocity fluctuations in a turbulent shear flow are shown to carry information about the non-normal amplification process. The creation of spanwise modulated streaks by downstream vortices implies an asymmetry in temporal correlation functions. We verify this in numerical simulations in shear flows with Reλ≈ 100.
