What does the code number of a DNS database mean ?

[Code Number] = [8 characters]+ "." + [3 characters]
= [ABijklXY] + "." + [CDn]

AB: classification code #2.
ij: primary strain rate component, e.g., (12) denotes dU_1/dx_2.
k: primary scalar gradient direction, e.g., (2) denotes dT/dx_2.
l: buoyancy force direction, e.g., (3) denotes rho*g_3. l = 9,if buoyancy
affects multiple directions.
XY: classification code #3.
CD: classification code #1.
n: entry number among same flow category.
