Abstract

Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) equation describes the dynamics of low-temperature superfluids and Bose-Einstein Condensates (BEC). We performed a numerical simulation of turbulence

  • beying GP equation (Quantum turbulence). We report some

preliminary results of the simulation.

1.2 Turbulence as a dynamical System Characteristics of turbulence as a dynamical system

  • Large number of degrees of freedom
  • Nonlinear ( modes are strongly interacting )
  • Non-equilibrium ( forced and dissipative )

Statistical mechanics of thermal equilibrium states can not be applied to turbulence.

  • The law of equipartition do not hold.
  • Probability distribution of physical variables strongly

deviates from Gaussian (Gibbs distribution).

1.6 Statistical Theory of Turbulence

  • cf. (for equilibrium states)

Thermodynamics

The macroscopic state is completely characterized by the free energy, F(T, V, N).

Statistical mechanics

Macroscopic variables are related to microscopic characteristics (Hamiltonian). F(T, V, N) = −kT log Z(T, V, N)

Statistical theory of turbulence ?

What are the set of variables that characterize the statistical state of turbulence?

  • ǫ? (Kolmogorov Theory ?)
  • Fluctuation of ǫ? (Multifractal

models?) How to relate statistical variables to Navier-Stokes equations?

  • Lagrangian Closures?

1.7 Classical Turbulence to Quantum Turbulence The statistical theory of (classical) turbulence is far from complete (to our knowledge). Why quantum turbulence ?

  • Quantum turbulence may provide a test ground for the

existing empirical theories for classical turbulence.

  • Some new ideas may be obtained from the study of quantum

turbulence. – Discrete structure of quantized vortex lines. Reconnection

  • Dissipation

– The normal viscosity type model. ν = ξ2 is chosen. – The dissipation term acts mainly in the high wavenumber range ( k ∼> 1/ξ ).

  • Forcing (Pumping of condensates)

αk =    α (k < kf) (k ≥ kf) – α is determined at every time step so as to keep ¯ ρ almost constant. – The forcing acts in the low wavenumber range k < kf. ⊳ 18 ⊲

5 Future Studies

  • Closure analysis based on ψ, ρ = |ψ|2.

– Can Eint(k) ∼ k−5/3 and Ekin(k) ∼ k4/3 be derived?

  • Investigation of singularities in the physical space.

– Relation between the spatial and temporal structures of quantized vortex lines (reconnection etc.) and intermittency. – Singularity spectrum f(α).
