La majeure partie de l'énergie cinétique de l'écoulement turbulent est contenue dans les structures à grande échelle. L'énergie passe en cascade de ces structures à l'échelle macroscopique aux structures à l'échelle microscopique par un mécanisme inertiel. Ce processus est connu sous le nom de cascade d'énergie turbulente.
