Mixing length model information


The mixing length is a distance that a fluid parcel will keep its original characteristics before dispersing them into the surrounding fluid. Here, the bar on the left side of the figure is the mixing length.

In fluid dynamics, the mixing length model is a method attempting to describe momentum transfer by turbulence Reynolds stresses within a Newtonian fluid boundary layer by means of an eddy viscosity. The model was developed by Ludwig Prandtl in the early 20th century.[1] Prandtl himself had reservations about the model,[2] describing it as, "only a rough approximation,"[3] but it has been used in numerous fields ever since, including atmospheric science, oceanography and stellar structure.[4]
