Abstract: | We present a new experimental platform for studies of turbulence and turbulent mixing in accelerating and rotating fluids.
The technology is based on the ultra-high performance optical holographic digital data storage. The state-of-the-art electro-mechanical,
electronic, and laser components allow for realization of turbulent flows with high Reynolds number (>107) in a relatively small form-factor, and quantification of their properties with extremely high spatio-temporal resolutions
and high data acquisition rates. The technology can be applied for investigation of a large variety of hydrodynamic problems
including the fundamental properties of non-Kolmogorov turbulence and turbulent mixing in accelerating, rotating and multiphase
flows, magneto-hydrodynamics, and laboratory astrophysics. Unique experimental and metrological capabilities enable the studies
of spatial and temporal properties of the transports of momentum, angular momentum, and energy and the identification of scalings,
invariants, and statistical properties of these complex turbulent flows. |
