| contents | Synthesizing fully developed three-dimensional turbulent velocity fields remains a long-standing problem in fluid mechanics and an open challenge for generative modeling. The difficulty arises from the coexistence of extreme dimensionality, multiscale rough fluctuations and strong intermittency, together with exact physical constraints such as incompressibility and zero-mean momentum. We propose a physics-constrained diffusion model (PCDM) in which these \emph{a priori} constraints are incorporated directly into the generative dynamics. Using rotating turbulence as a stringent benchmark, we show that the proposed framework enables stable and statistically faithful synthesis of inertial-range three-dimensional turbulent velocity fields at medium resolution, accurately reproducing anisotropic energy spectra, intermittency statistics, and physical constraints. By contrast, standard denoising diffusion probabilistic models without such constraints exhibit multiscale statistical deviations, violations of physical consistency, and substantially slower training convergence. These findings point to broader implications for generative modeling of high-dimensional complex systems under physical constraints. |
