The root‐mean‐square concentration fluctuation for a passive scalar in a turbulent flow, obtained by integrating the spectrum of batchelor (1959), can be interpreted in terms of a mixing length times the mean scalar concentration gradient.

A new mixing length adapted to the constraints of the grey zone of turbulence for neutral and convective boundary layers is proposed.

The mixing length is built for isotropic turbulence schemes.
The following conclusions are drawn from the analysis: (1) when the flow is laminar, the mixing length is longer than that of the turbulent state, so try to keep the gas in the turbulent state; (2) with an increase in the flow velocity, pipeline diameter, and pipeline length, mixing length increases; (3) with an increase in the back pressure.
