Abstract
We review the concept of “equilibrium” in turbulence. It generally means a property of the energy spectrum, it can also be understood in terms of a scalar property, the Taylor-Kolmogorov formula relating the dissipation rate to the total energy and integral length scale. The implications of equilibrium and strong departure from equilibrium for turbulence modeling are stressed.
