Abstract
The inverse cascade of energy is a peculiar feature of two-dimensional turbulence. Numerical and experimental studies have shown that it is possible to produce an inverse cascade also in a three-dimensional flow in a thin layer configuration. Here we study how the friction produced by the confining box induces three-dimensional fluctuations which disrupt the inverse cascade and eventually stop the transfer of energy to large scales.
