Abstract: | The turbulent nature of the motions on the solar photosphere is being emphasized more and more by the high resolution quality observations. The processes of inverse cascade of energy in a turbulent medium are being explored for modeling the hierarchal flow patterns on the solar surface. Here, the development of large scale flows is studied using the Kolmogorovic arguments for a statistically stationary turbulent fluid as well as through the solution of the Navier-Stokes equations including the Reynold's stresses generated by the small scale flows, in a manner akin to the dynamo problem. Some of the testable predictions of the model are also listed. |
