Navier Stokes Dataset of Isotropic Turbulence in a periodic box

The dataset for tensor-to-tensor or trajectory-to-trajectory neural operators, generated from Navier-Stokes equations to model the isotropic turbulence [1] such that the spectra satisfy the inverse cascade discovered by A.N. Kolmogorov [2].

Dataset Details

Dataset Description

The dataset contains several cases of isotropic turbulence modeled by Navier-Stokes equations. The data are generated either by a pseudo-spectral solver with 4th-order Runge-Kutta for the convection term, or a higher order Finite Volume IMEX methods. The different initial conditions have different peak wavenumbers of O(1), and eventually their spectra all converge to the Kolmogorov inverse cascade.
