Abstract
The equations of multimoment hydrodynamics are used to study the process of distortion of regular flow modes in the problem of a flow around a sphere at rest. The effect of spontaneous fluctuations, which are constantly present in the medium, regardless of the external effect, is studied. It is shown that the behavior of an unstable system is a mirror image of its behavior in the stability mode. The change in the direction of evolution of a system that has lost stability excludes the possibility of the participation of spontaneous fluctuations in the occurrence and development of turbulence. Thus, this responsibility falls entirely on the disordered perturbations that appear in the environment due to an external effect. In the absence of disordered perturbations, spontaneous fluctuations ensure the fulfillment of conservation laws in a system that has lost stability. However, spontaneous fluctuations are not able to distort the laminar flow pattern in the wake of the sphere.
