Dissipation refers to the process through which energy is transformed from organized forms, such as kinetic or potential energy, into disorganized forms, primarily thermal energy. In the context of turbulence, particularly strong turbulence and plasma turbulence, dissipation plays a critical role in how energy is transferred and spread throughout a system, often leading to the eventual stabilization of turbulent flows and influencing the behavior of plasma states.
congrats on reading the definition of Dissipation. now let's actually learn it.
