Abstract

A wavelet-based method to extract coherent vortices is applied to data of three-dimensional incompressible homogeneous isotropic turbulence with the Taylor micro-scale Reynolds number 471 in order to examine contribution of the vortices to statistics on the turbulent flow. We observe a strong scale-by-scale correlation between the velocity field induced by them and the total velocity field over the scales retained by the data. We also find that the vortices almost preserve statistics of nonlinear interactions of the total flow over the inertial range.
