On the Comparison of Flow Physics between Minimal and Extended Flow Units in Turbulent Channels

Direct numerical simulations were performed to study the effects of the domain size of a minimal flow unit (MFU) and its inherent periodic boundary conditions on flow physics of a turbulent channel flow in a range of <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"...
