Abstract

The renormalization group is applied to the Navier-Stokes equation for randomly forced media. Contrary to the previous works on the subject, the stochastic forcing is not assumed to be a white noise (the Galilean invariance can then be broken). The influence of deviations from the white noise on the renormalized hydrodynamic equations is estimated.
