A series of experiments carried out in the last century have demonstrated, in most incompressible fluid flows occurring near solid walls, the existence of a transitional range at the onset of the turbulent regime
It is well established that the transitional range, parameterized by the so-called Reynolds number proportional to the fluid velocity, features a regime of laminar-turbulent patterning
Summary
Publisher’s Note: MDPI stays neutral with regard to jurisdictional claims in published maps and institutional affiliations. The study of the transition from a laminar to a turbulent flow is as old as the study of turbulence itself. A series of experiments carried out in the last century have demonstrated, in most incompressible fluid flows occurring near solid walls, the existence of a transitional range at the onset of the turbulent regime. Around the end of the XXth century did researchers begin to understand that laminar-turbulent intermittency features a higher degree of organization, in the statistical sense, than previously thought.
