Self-similar formation of the thermodynamical spectrum in Lieth model of turbulence

The appearence of a thermodynamic part of the energy spectrum of turbulence for large wave numbers was established numerically in the paper [1]. In the frame of the Lieth model of turbulence [2] this result it is proven analytically with the construction of a self-similar ansatz. Moreover, we investigate the phenomenon  of ”secondary dissipation” spectrum depletion under the transition to the thermalised range of spectrum.
