We determine the timescales associated with turbulent diffusion and isotropization in closure models using anisotropically forced and freely decaying turbulence simulations and to study the applicability of these models. We compare the results from anisotropically forced three-dimensional numerical simulations with the predictions of the closure models and obtain the turbulent timescales mentioned above as functions of the Reynolds number. In a second set of simulations, turning the forcing off enables us to study the validity of the closures in freely decaying turbulence. Both types of experiments suggest that the timescale of turbulent diffusion converges to a constant value at higher Reynolds numbers. Furthermore, the relative importance of isotropization is found to be about 2.5 times larger at higher Reynolds numbers than in the more viscous regime.

In this paper, we calibrate the coefficients for the one-dimensional Reynolds stress model with the data generated from the three-dimensional numerical simulations of upward overshooting in turbulent compressible convection. It has been found that th
e calibrated convective and isotropic coefficients are almost the same as those calibrated in the pure convection zone. However, the calibrated diffusive coefficients differ significantly from those calibrated in the pure convection zone. We suspect that the diffusive effect induced by the boundary is stronger than by the adjacent stable zone. We have checked the validity of the downgradient approximation. We find that the prediction of the downgradient approximation on the third-order moments is unsatisfactory. However, the prediction on their derivatives is much better. It explains why the performance of the Reynolds stress model is reasonable in application to the real stars. With the calibrated coefficients, we have solved the full set of nonlocal turbulent equations on Reynolds stress model. We find that the Reynolds stress model has successfully produced the thermal adjustment layer and turbulent dissipation layer, which were identified in the three-dimensional numerical simulations. We suggest to use the inflection point of the auto-correlation of temperature perturbation and the Peclet number as the indicators on measuring the extents of the thermal adjustment layer and turbulent dissipation layer, respectively. This result may offer a practical guidance on the application of the Reynolds stress model in 1D stellar structure and evolution models.
We have modelled the multicycle evolution of rapidly-accreting CO white dwarfs (RAWDs) with stable H burning intermittent with strong He-shell flashes on their surfaces for $0.7leq M_mathrm{RAWD}/M_odotleq 0.75$ and [Fe/H] ranging from $0$ to $-2.6$.
We have also computed the i-process nucleosynthesis yields for these models. The i process occurs when convection driven by the He-shell flash ingests protons from the accreted H-rich surface layer, which results in maximum neutron densities $N_mathrm{n,max}approx 10^{13}$-$10^{15} mathrm{cm}^{-3}$. The H-ingestion rate and the convective boundary mixing (CBM) parameter $f_mathrm{top}$ adopted in the one-dimensional nucleosynthesis and stellar evolution models are constrained through 3D hydrodynamic simulations. The mass ingestion rate and, for the first time, the scaling laws for the CBM parameter $f_mathrm{top}$ have been determined from 3D hydrodynamic simulations. We confirm our previous result that the high-metallicity RAWDs have a low mass retention efficiency ($eta < 10%$). A new result is that RAWDs with [Fe/H]$< -2$ have $eta > 20%$, therefore their masses may reach the Chandrasekhar limit and they may eventually explode as SNeIa. This result and the good fits of the i-process yields from the metal-poor RAWDs to the observed chemical composition of the CEMP-r/s stars suggest that some of the present-day CEMP-r/s stars could be former distant members of triple systems, orbiting close binary systems with RAWDs that may have later exploded as SNeIa.
Sunspot position data obtained from Kanzelh{o}he Observatory for Solar and Environmental Research (KSO) sunspot drawings and white light images in the period 1964 to 2016 were used to calculate the rotational and meridional velocities of the solar pl
asma. Velocities were calculated from daily shifts of sunspot groups and an iterative process of calculation of the differential rotation profiles was used to discard outliers. We found a differential rotation profile and meridional motions in agreement with previous studies using sunspots as tracers and conclude that the quality of the KSO data is appropriate for analysis of solar velocity patterns. By analysing the correlation and covariance of meridional velocities and rotation rate residuals we found that the angular momentum is transported towards the solar equator. The magnitude and latitudinal dependence of the horizontal component of the Reynolds stress tensor calculated is sufficient to maintain the observed solar differential rotation profile. Therefore, our results confirm that the Reynolds stress is the dominant mechanism responsible for transport of angular momentum towards the solar equator.
A new scaling is derived that yields a Reynolds number independent profile for all components of the Reynolds stress in the near-wall region of wall bounded flows. The scaling demonstrates the important role played by the wall shear stress fluctuatio
ns and how the large eddies determine the Reynolds number dependence of the near-wall turbulence behavior.
Accounting for the Reynolds number is critical in numerical simulations of turbulence, particularly for subsonic flow. For Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) with constant artificial viscosity coefficient alpha, it is shown that the effective Reyn
olds number in the absence of explicit physical viscosity terms scales linearly with the Mach number - compared to mesh schemes, where the effective Reynolds number is largely independent of the flow velocity. As a result, SPH simulations with alpha=1 will have low Reynolds numbers in the subsonic regime compared to mesh codes, which may be insufficient to resolve turbulent flow. This explains the failure of Bauer and Springel (2011, arXiv:1109.4413v1) to find agreement between the moving-mesh code AREPO and the GADGET SPH code on simulations of driven, subsonic (v ~ 0.3 c_s) turbulence appropriate to the intergalactic/intracluster medium, where it was alleged that SPH is somehow fundamentally incapable of producing a Kolmogorov-like turbulent cascade. We show that turbulent flow with a Kolmogorov spectrum can be easily recovered by employing standard methods for reducing alpha away from shocks.
