Abstract
The role of eddy diffusion of mass (water vapor) and momentum was investigated in a specially devised wettedβwall channel in which the rippling of the liquid film was eliminated. The experimental measurements of the turbulent exchange coefficients for mass and momentum transport were carried out in a fully developed turbulent flow of air within the range of Reynolds numbers of 8,00 to 160,000. A correlation with Reynollds number revealed an approximately linear relationship of the eddy diffusivties to Reynolds number revealed an approximately linear relationship of the eddy diffusivities to Reynolds number [Equation (4)]. From the hotβwire measurements it was found that within the main protion of the turbulent core eddy diffusivities remained fairly constant.
