Development of Eulerian Theory of Turbulence within Kraichnan's Direct Interaction Approximation Framework

Within the framework of Kraichnan’s Direct Interaction Approximation (DIA), we propose an Eulerian turbulence theory providing a closed set of equations for two-time and single-time velocity correlations, and second order correlations of infinitesimal response tensor ${\widehat{G}}_{in}(\mathbf{k};t,t^{\mathrm{\prime }})$. The proposed theory, namely variant of DIA (VDIA), is consistent with Kolmogorov’s energy spectrum. The VDIA is further modified to make it compatible with random Galilean transformation rules. The closed set of equations does not contain equation for ensemble averaged response tensor $G_{in}({\bf k};t,t’)=\langle\hat{G}_{in}({\bf k};t,t’)\rangle$. The present theory can also be seen as a new remormalized perturbation theory having different method for renormalization.
