ADIABATIC HEATING OF CONTRACTING TURBULENT FLUIDS
ADIABATIC HEATING OF CONTRACTING TURBULENT FLUIDS
Turbulence influences the behavior of many astrophysical systems, frequently by providing non-thermal pressure support through random bulk motions. Although turbulence is commonly studied in systems with constant volume and mean density, turbulent astrophysical gases often expand or contract under the influence of pressure or gravity. Here, we examine the behavior …
