Abstract
In order to introduce new physics to traditional two-point correlations, we define the second-order correlation of longitudinal velocity increments at three points and obtain the analytical expressions in isotropic turbulence. By introducing the Kolmogorov 4/5 law, this three-point correlation explicitly contains velocity second- and third-order moments, which correspond to energy and energy transfer respectively. The combination of them then shows additional information of non-equilibrium turbulence by comparing to two-point correlations. Moreover, this three-point correlation shows the underlying inconsistency between numerical interpolation and three-point scaling law in numerical calculations, and inspires a preliminary model to correct this problem in isotropic turbulence.
