EN

A mathematical formalism to reflect the turbulent hierarchic eddy structure in an average turbulence description is discussed. The formalism is founded on simultaneous application of turbulent flow field splitting procedures by the motion variability and by the motion order explained in the paper. It is shown that this formalism permits the outlining of different types of cascading processes in turbulent media within the turbulence average description.
