Abstract

Fluid material line growth in turbulent flow has been measured by tagging lines with small hydrogen bubbles in the nearly isotropic turbulence behind a regular grid in a water tunnel. The average three-dimensional line lengths were inferred by an intersection-counting method carried out on one-plane photographs. The measurements cover ‘small’ time intervals only.
