Data-driven derivation of the turbulent energy cascade generator

Within the framework of random multiplicative energy cascade models of fully developed turbulence, expressions for two-point correlators and cumulants are derived, taking into account a proper conversion from an ultrametric to an Euclidean two-point distance. The comparison with two-point statistics of the surrogate energy dissipation, extracted from various wind tunnel and atmospheric boundary layer records, allows an accurate deduction of multiscaling exponents and cumulants. These exponents serve as the input for parametric estimates of the probabilistic cascade generator.

On the effects of surrogacy of energy dissipation in determining the intermittency exponent in fully developed turbulence

The two-point correlation function of the energy dissipation, obtained from a one-point time record of an atmospheric boundary layer, reveals a rigorous power-law scaling with intermittency exponent mu=0.20 over almost the entire inertial range of scales. However, for the related integral moment, the power-law scaling is restricted to the upper part of the inertial range only. This observation is explained in terms of the operational surrogacy of the construction of energy dissipation, which influences the behaviour of the correlation function for small separation distances.
