Turbulence modeling relies critically on accurate characterization of large-scale structures, with the integral length scale L serving as a key parameter for industrial applications ranging from combustion stability optimization to wind farm design and aerodynamic load prediction. However, Direct numerical simulation (DNS) of turbulence faces inherent limitations in resolving all wavenumbers within the lowwavenumber region of the turbulent kinetic energy spectrum due to finite computational domain sizes. This unresolved low-wavenumber deficiency leads to incomplete characterization of large-scale structures and introduces systematic deviations in key statistical quantities, particularly the integral length scale L and turbulence dissipation coefficient C_ε. As turbulence evolves, the spectral peak wavenumber k_p migrates toward lower wavenumbers, exacerbating the loss of large-scale information and causing computed statistics to diverge from physical reality. In this study, we perform high-fidelity DNS of homogeneous isotropic decaying turbulence in a periodic cubic domain of side length 4π with 384³ grid points. DNS cases are performed by using a standard pseudospectral solver and a fourth-order Runge-Kutta time integration scheme, with a semi-implicit treatment of the viscous term. The spatial resolution k_maxη = 1.65 ensures adequate resolution of dissipative scales (η is the Kolmogorov scale). Simulations start from a fully developed field initialized with a spectrum matching Comte-Bellot and Corrsin’s experimental data and evolve within a time interval where turbulence exhibits established isotropic decay characteristics. Existing correction models, predominantly based on equilibrium turbulence assumptions, fail to capture the non-equilibrium dynamics governed by large-scale structures. Based on a generalized von Kármán spectrum model, we use a correction framework to account for unresolved low-wavenumber contributions in homogeneous isotropic decaying turbulence. DNS data reveal that the uncorrected integral scale L_m significantly underestimates the true L, with errors escalating as k_L/k_p increases, where k_L is the minimum resolvable wavenumber in the simulation domain. After correction, L exhibits a temporal evolution following the Saffmann-predicted power-law relationship $L \propto t^{2 / 5}$, contrasting sharply with the underestimated pre-correction values. Despite the spectral correction substantially increasing the spectral integral scale L, its value remains less than the physically derived integral scale Λ computed from the velocity correlation function, primarily due to the finite domain size limiting large-scale statistics and the moderate grid resolution, though higher-resolution simulations with the same domain show L converging towards Λ. Notably, the unmodified dissipation coefficient C_ε remains constant, consistent with equilibrium turbulence assumptions, whereas the corrected C_ε evolves according to the non-equilibrium scaling law $C_{\varepsilon} \sim R e_\lambda^{-1}$. Further analysis confirms that the ratio L/λ shifts from Kolmogorov’s $R e_\lambda^1$ dependence to a Reynolds-number-independent plateau after correction, fundamentally altering the turbulence dissipation paradigm. This transition from equilibrium to non-equilibrium dissipation behavior underscores the dominant role of large-scale structures in regulating energy cascade dynamics. Our results demonstrate that finite Reynolds numbers or strong initial-condition effects amplify the nonequilibrium characteristics of turbulence, preventing full-scale equilibrium. These findings reconcile long-standing theoretical discrepancies and provide a paradigm for modeling scale interactions in turbulence.
