ABSTRACT
Turbulent entrainment laws obtained experimentally for an annular two-layer stratified flow are predicted theoretically using the mixing model recently developed by Mory (1991). This paper shows how the salinity spectra measured by Chai & Kit (1991) can be utilized by the model equations to predict the power of the entrainment law for a flow in an annulus with or without a velocity shear across the density interface. The predicted values are found to be very close to the measured ones.
