Gradient and counter-gradient transport in turbulent premixed flames

Counter-gradient transport is the turbulent diffusion of one species against its mean gradient. It can be attributed to the preferential influence of the mean pressure gradient on hot, low-density, burned gases and on cold high-density fresh gases (Kuo 1996). Although both experimental data and theoretical analysis have pointed out the existence of counter-gradient turbulent transport, the practical importance of counter-gradient turbulent transport remains controversial (PoinsotT:2001).
