Chaos in Open Flow Systems

  • Conference paper
Dimensions and Entropies in Chaotic Systems

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Synergetics ((SSSYN,volume 32))

Abstract

We discuss briefly some aspects of ‘open flow systems’ in the context of deterministic chaos. This note is mostly a statement of the difficulties in characterizing such flows, especially at high Reynolds numbers, by dynamical systems. Brief comments will be made on the fractal geometry of turbulence.
