Passive scalar cascades in rotating helical and non-helical flows
We study how helicity affects the spectrum of a passive scalar in rotating turbulent flows, using numerical simulations of turbulent flows with or without rotation and with or without injection of helicity. Scaling laws for energy and passive scalar spectra in the direction perpendicular to the rota...
