Abstract

S TUBLEY and Riopelle correctly point out that strong rotation can affect the turbulence dissipation rate, as suggested by the studies of Wigeland and Nagib, and Bardina et al. This effect could be important for flows in high speed turbomachinery, although the results of Launder et al. indicate that it is relatively small in some parameter ranges. The direct effect of rotation on dissipation rate or equivalently, on the turbulence macroscale, did not escape our attention and is discussed in a companion paper (Kantha et al.), where the correction term suggested by Bardina et al. is generalized and incorporated into the length scale equation. A reference to this
