the theory that small-scale turbulence is universal and set only by the energy dissipation rate, giving a minus five-thirds energy spectrum.

In fluid dynamics, Kolmogorov 1941 theory refers to the theory that small-scale turbulence is universal and set only by the energy dissipation rate, giving a minus five-thirds energy spectrum. This meaning comes from Kolmogorov (1941/1991) in Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Mathematical and Physical Sciences.[1]
