Kolmogorov theory

Kolmogorov's theory describes how energy moves in turbulent fluid flows, like swirling water or the wind. It states that at very small scales, the turbulence behaves in a predictable way, with energy cascading from larger, energetic motions to smaller ones until it dissipates as heat. The theory predicts a specific pattern (called the energy spectrum) showing how much energy exists at each scale. This understanding helps scientists model and analyze complex fluid behaviors, important in fields like meteorology, engineering, and oceanography.
