In the current work we propose a theory for an additional mass diffusion effect in the conventional gas dynamics equations. We find that this effect appears as a homogenization time limit correction, when the deterministic interaction…
Bubble-particle collisions in turbulence are central to a variety of processes such as froth flotation. Despite their importance, details of the collision process have not received much attention yet. This is compounded by the sometimes…
