Dilute poly-disperse mixtures of small liquid droplets in gas phase flow is a common feature of both environmental and industrial processes. For example: clouds, humidification and cooling, combustion, surface coating, fire suppression, drug delivery, and pesticide application. In many practical cases the droplets are small enough that their motion is strongly influenced by the gas phase turbulence. The effect of turbulence on the droplet motion depends on the droplet inertia and size relative to the length and velocity scales of the turbulence. In general terms, turbulence causes a diffusion of droplets across the flow and in such a manner as to generate intermittent regions of droplet concentration at the mixing and dissipation scales.

在气相流动中，小液滴的稀多分散混合物是环境和工业过程的共同特征。例如：云层、加湿和冷却、燃烧、表面涂层、灭火、药物输送和农药应用。在许多实际情况下，液滴足够小，它们的运动受到气相湍流的强烈影响。湍流对液滴运动的影响取决于相对于湍流长度和速度尺度的液滴惯性和大小。一般来说，湍流引起液滴在流动中的扩散，并以这样一种方式在混合和耗散尺度上产生液滴浓度的间歇区域。
