Turbulent mixing of a passive scalar. Turbulence is the usual state of fluid motion. This proposal will increase Australia's expertise in fundamental turbulence research, especially in the area of turbulent mixing, which is of major importance in many natural and engineering problems involving combustion, chemical reactions and pollution. A better knowledge of mixing at small scales will lead to more efficient combustion, savings in energy expenditure as well as a reduction in pollutant emiss ....Turbulent mixing of a passive scalar.

Effect of forcing on the turbulent mixing of a passive scalar. This project will increase Australia’s expertise in the area of turbulence, which is the usual state of fluid motion . A better knowledge of turbulent mixing will lead to more efficient combustion, savings in energy expenditure as well as a reduction in pollutant emissions.
