hi,

I ve a few question about the Kolmogorow scales which are briefly described here

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kolmogorov_microscales

1. length scale:
- Is the length scale the size of the smallest turbulence encountered?
and
- Have the mesh cells to be all of the same size or even smaller in DNS (direct numerical simulation)?

2. time scale:
- What is the meaning of the time scale?
- What is it good for? Does it have an influence on the simulation time steps?

3.velocity-scala:
- What is it good for?

greetings
