Summary

The homogenisation of dilute polymer solutions in turbulent pipe flow has been measured by an iodine — thiosulphate reaction between parallel entering flows, following the method of Hiby, and by laser doppler anemometry. A qualitive comparison has been made between the results of the mixing, made visible by the redox reaction and the velocity fluctuations in the three directions.
