We look at various correlation functions, which include those that involve both the velocity and the vorticity fields, in two-dimensional (2D) isotropic homogeneous decaying turbulence. We adopt the more intuitive approach due to Kolmogorov (and subsequently Landau in his text on fluid dynamics) and show that how the 2D turbulence results, obtainable using other methods, may be established in a simpler way. Also, some experimentally verifiable correlation functions in the dissipation range have been derived for the same system. The paper also showcases the inability of the Kolmogorov-Landau approach to get the “one-eighth law” in the enstrophy cascade region. As discussed in the paper, this may raise the spectre of logarithmic corrections once again in 2D turbulence.
