This volume presents selected papers from the IUTAM Symposium on
Reynolds Number Scaling in Turbulent Flow, convened in Princeton,
NJ, USA, September I1-13, 2002. The behavior ofturbulence at high
Reynolds number is interesting from a fundamental point of view, in
that most theories of turbulence make very specific predictions in
the limit of infinite Reynolds number. From a more practical point
of view, there exist many applications that involve turbulent flow
where the Reynolds numbers are extremely large. For example, large
vehicles such as submarines and commercial transports operate at
Reynolds 9 numbers based on length ofthe order oft0 , and
industrial pipe flows cover a 7 very wide range of Reynolds numbers
up to 10 * Many very important applications of high Reynolds number
flow pertain to atmospheric and other geophysical flows where
extremely high Reynolds numbers are the rule rather than the
exception, and the understanding of climate changes and the
prediction of destructive weather effects hinges to some extent on
our appreciation ofhigh-Reynolds number turbulence behavior. The
important effects of Reynolds number on turbulence has received a
great deal of recent attention. The objective of the Symposium was
to bring together many of the world's experts in this area to
appraise the new experimental results, discuss new scaling laws and
turbulence models, and to enhance our mutual understanding of
turbulence.
