Apart from small eddies of ash disturbed by the breeze, nothing moved in the eerie silence.

The largest eddies will always be the same size; the smallest eddies are determined by the Reynolds number.

Beyond it flowed the heavy mainstream, with small eddies curling along and through the wire on the surface.

From time to time, a few marchers stopped and stared, creating small eddies in the flowing crowd around them.

The water swirled in small eddies a few feet away.

They floated through the air, swirled in small eddies across the rugs, draped themselves delicately over the edges of the bed.

The small dissipative eddies must be generated from larger ones.

From these, smaller eddies are generated, and then still smaller ones.

Still smaller eddies must be generated before the dissipation can occur.

At any instant the production of small eddies is thus occurring vigorously in some places and only weakly in others.
