Taylor scale

Note that at high Reynolds number Xg lies at scales between L and 77, and thus cannot be given a clear physical interpretation in terms of eddies in the flow. Nevertheless, the Taylor microscale is often used to define the Taylor-scale Reynolds number ...

V / oX / )]" a relationship that enables lines of constant values of Ri to be plotted, as shown. Turbulence Reynolds numbers quoted in the literature are often based on the Taylor scale, equation (31), instead of the integral scale these are directly related to and are denoted by in Figure 10.5. In addition to the ratio IJd) of the smallest turbulence scale to the laminar-flame thickness, the ratio of the largest scale (the integral scale) to the flame thickness, //<5, is a relevant parameter. Lines of constant values of //(5, generated from equation (30), also are shown in Figure 10.5.

His researches and those of his pupils led to his formulation in the twenties of the concept of active catalytic centers and the heterogeneity of catalytic and adsorptive surfaces. His catalytic studies were supplemented by researches carried out simultaneously on kinetics of homogeneous gas reactions and photochemistry. The thirties saw Hugh Taylor utilizing more and more of the techniques developed by physicists. Thermal conductivity for ortho-para hydrogen analysis resulted in his use of these species for surface characterization. The discovery of deuterium prompted him to set up production of this isotope by electrolysis on a large scale of several cubic centimeters. This gave him and others a supply of this valuable tracer for catalytic studies. For analysis he invoked not only thermal conductivity, but infrared spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. To ex-... 

Although vortices of small scale, such as Kolmogorov scale or Taylor microscale, are significant in modeling turbulent combustion [4,6-9], vortices of large scale, in fhe order of millimeters, have been used in various experiments to determine the flame speed along a vorfex axis.
