Study of scalar gradient fields by geometric measure theory
Abstract
Upper bounds of the Hausdorff volume of scalar gradient field graphs are derived by means of geometric measure theory. The approach reproduces that scalar gradient fields along a mean imposed scalar gradient become space filling for sufficiently high values of Schmidt numbers Sc. The bounds are consistent with findings from recent high-resolution numerical experiments for 1<= Sc <= 64, but too rough when compared with numerical simulations. A Reynolds number dependence of the bounds is found due to the additional scalar gradient stretching term in the equation of motion.
