Abstract

Regularity diagnostics for the Navier-Stokes equations based on rescaled high-order vorticity moments are applied to direct numerical simulation (DNS) of plane turbulent channel flow and calculations of high-Reynolds-number vortex reconnection. At the wall-normal height typical of the tips of hairpin vortices, the temporal evolution of the vorticity moments is qualitatively similar to that of controlled high-Reynolds-number vortex reconnection in the absence of walls. Both the channel flow and vortex reconnection data exhibit higher measure of vorticity than previous results from decaying and forced isotropic turbulence. This allows for future analysis of vortex dynamics based on new results detailing the vorticity and helicity dynamics of reconnection events.
