Abstract
The pressure structure function and pressure-gradient correlation are related to components of the fourth-order velocity structure function on the basis of the Navier-Stokes equation, incompressibility, local homogeneity, and local isotropy. Data from a wind tunnel, as well as numerical simulation, are used to calculate and thereby show that greater Reynolds numbers are needed to observe an inertial range in than in A previous additional supposition relates and to the single component This additional supposition is shown to be inaccurate for calculation of and
