Aug 22, 2012 at 22:27 comment added Daniel Lengeler Let me make my question a bit more precise. The situation i had in mind is a fluid flow whose mean flow, say, has a low Mach number. As far as i know experiment says then that the turbulent fluctuations will have a low Mach number, too. Now, might the model (in particular the viscous term) need to be adjusted (due to large velocity gradients for example) already in the low Mach number regime?
