Mixing liquids and other turbulent systems have long been observed to follow a universal rule known as Batchelor’s law. Researchers have finally proved it mathematically.
Key Takeaways:
- While turbulent patterns can appear random and chaotic, scientists believe there is a pattern to everyone.
- Batchelor’s law is a theory postulated by an Australian mathematician predicting movement in seeming random patterns.
- 3 scientists have proven that turbulence can be predicted with Batchelor’s law, following various patterns.
“While the white waters of a choppy river aren’t the exact kind of turbulence at issue in the new proof, they are closely related and more familiar.”
