We investigate the coherent vortex produced by two-dimensional turbulence excited in a finite box. We establish analytically the mean velocity profile of the vortex for the case where the bottom friction is negligible and express its characteristics via the parameters of pumping. Our theoretical predictions are verified and confirmed by direct numerical simulations in the framework of two-dimensional weakly compressible hydrodynamics with zero boundary conditions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
