 abstract = {We carry out a direct numerical simulation (DNS) study that reveals the
effects of polymers on statistically steady, forced, homogeneous, and
isotropic fluid turbulence. We find clear manifestations of
dissipation-reduction phenomena: on the addition of polymers to the
turbulent fluid, we obtain a reduction in the energy dissipation rate; a
significant modification of the fluid-energy spectrum, especially in the
deep-dissipation range; and signatures of the suppression of small-scale
structures, including a decrease in small-scale vorticity filaments. We
also compare our results with recent experiments and earlier DNS studies
of decaying fluid turbulence with polymer additives.},
