Several experimental results indicate that S, (the skewness of the vertical turbulent velocity) increases with height, and K, (the kurtosis) decreases with height in the neutral surface layer. The measured behavior of S, and K, with height under neutral conditions is shown to be consistent with avai

The effect of polymer concentration on drag reduction was studied experimentally with diluted water solutions of polyvinylacetate in a 2.4 cm I.D. pipe. The instantaneous local velocities of the velocity fields were measured by a one-channel differential laser-Doppler anemometer DISA Mark II, with f
Velocity and temperature derivatives were obtained at a height of 4 m in the atmospheric surface layer above land. With the assumption of local isotropy, these measurements are used to obtain some statistics of the turbulent energy and scalar dissipation fields. These statistics include the variance
