Abstract
A novel random field model for the reconstruction of inhomogeneous turbulence from characteristic flow quantities has been recently introduced and analyzed by the authors. This article concerns the numerical approximation and implementation of the model and discusses its key features by means of numerical simulations. We present an effective discretization scheme based on a randomized quadrature method for stochastic integrals. The convergence of the scheme is verified analytically and its algorithmic implementation is described in detail. Various numerical simulation results illustrate the influence of the macroscopically varying characteristic flow quantities on the inhomogeneous turbulence field and demonstrate its spatio-temporal ergodicity properties.
