Direct numerical simulations (DNS) of a vibrating grid turbulence at two different Reynolds numbers (based on an amplitude and frequency of the grid) Re = 500, 1000 are presented. The evolution of a turbulent/non‐turbulent interface was detected and compared to the theoretical results obtained in the paper [1] using Lie group analysis of the governing equations. Good agreement was found between DNS and theory. (© 2009 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
