Abstract
The article's main theme is the ‘turbulence modelling’ used in present days' computational schemes. This modelling is an effort to account for the influence of turbulent motion on diffusion processes, and reflects our efforts to bridge what is generally recognized as the ‘closure gap’, i.e. to replace a needed phenomenological relation(s) with hypotheses of some kind. In this way one tries to remedy our lack of knowledge of turbulent motion. For that purpose a number of ideas and concepts over the past 60 years is mentioned and their incorporation in numerical analysis is discussed. The main emphasis is placed on the physical concepts and their consequences.
