Abstract A new approach for calculating the concentration distribution in inhomogeneous turbulence is suggested. The model is a 3-D model, constrained to describe incompressible flow. The model requires a knowledge of the covariance matrix of the Eulerian velocities and the two-point third moments. The model is applied for three types of turbulent field: homogeneous isotropic turbulence, constant flux neutral boundary layer and free convective turbulence. The required Eulerian moments are calculated using the ‘eddy model’ of the turbulent field. Concentration moments are calculated and results are compared to experimental data. Other model predictions which have no experimental support can be compared to measurements when available.
