Description

A fully de-aliased, two-dimensional Fourier spectral method simulation is described. This numerical method is used to study the spectral distribution of relative compressible and magnetic energy versus initial rms Mach number for decaying turbulence. Results from fluid (Navier-Stokes) simulations are compared with magneto-fluid (MHD) simulations. Future applications of the numerical procedure are also discussed
