Abstract: | Analysis of a simplified equation derived previously for small-scale velocity components shows that any turbulent flow of
an incompressible liquid becomes unstable against infinitesimal perturbations of small-scale velocity components if the strain
rate tensor for the large-scale velocity is high. Such a statement comes into conflict with the classical stability theory,
which specifically asserts that the Poiseuille flow in a circular tube is linearly stable against infinitesimal perturbations. |
