We study some dyadic models for incompressible magnetohydrodynamics and Navier–Stokes equation. The existence of fixed point and stability of the fixed point are established. The scaling law of Kolmogorov’s dissipation wavenumber arises from heuristic analysis. In addition, a time-dependent determining wavenumber is shown to exist; moreover, the time average of the determining wavenumber is proved to be bounded above by Kolmogorov’s dissipation wavenumber. Additionally, based on the knowledge of the fixed point and stability of the fixed point, numerical simulations are performed to illustrate the energy spectrum in the inertial range below Kolmogorov’s dissipation wavenumber.

A particular type of dyadic model for the magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) with dominating forward energy cascade is studied. The model includes intermittency dimension $\delta $ in the nonlinear scales. It is shown that when $\delta $ is small, positive solution with large initial data for either the dyadic MHD or the dyadic Hall MHD model develops blowup in finite time. Moreover, for a class of positive initial data with large velocity components and small magnetic field components, we prove that there exists a positive solution that blows up at a finite time.
