Description
I discuss how turbulent mixing layers in infalling cold clouds serves as a drag force which can be more efficient than standard hydrodynamic drag. In a gravitational field, this leads to a terminal velocity which is smaller than standard terminal velocity, and can explain the sub-virial infall of filaments seen in galaxy clusters.
