Abstract

A scale-by-scale energy budget is investigated near the turbulent--nonturbulent interfacial layer with direct numerical simulations of a local turbulent front evolving without mean shear. The forward interscale energy transfer is caused by the velocity gradient in the interface normal direction. The pressure diffusion removes the energy at small scales within the interfacial layer.
