This study investigates the spatial distribution of inertial particles in turbulent Taylor-Couette flow. Direct numerical simulations are performed using a one-way coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian approach, with a fixed inner wall Reynolds…
Inertial particle data from three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of particle-laden homogeneous isotropic turbulence at high Reynolds number are analyzed using Voronoi tessellation of the particle positions, considering different…
Inertial particles in turbulent flows are characterised by preferential concentration and segregation and, at sufficient mass loading, dense particle clusters may spontaneously arise due to momentum coupling between the phases. These…
Spatial distributions of heavy particles suspended in an incompressible isotropic and homogeneous turbulent flow are investigated by means of high resolution direct numerical simulations. In the dissipative range, it is shown that particles…
The relative dispersion of pairs of inertial particles in incompressible, homogeneous, and isotropic turbulence is studied by means of direct numerical simulations at two values of the Taylor-scale Reynolds number $Re_{\lambda} \sim 200$…
We present experimental observations of the spatial distribution of large inertial particles suspended in a turbulent swirling flow at high Reynolds number. The plastic particles, which are tracked using several high speed cameras, are…
We study experimentally the spatial distribution, settling, and interaction of sub-Kolmogorov inertial particles with homogeneous turbulence. Utilizing a zero-mean-flow air turbulence chamber, we drop size-selected solid particles and study…
A theory of clustering of inertial particles advected by a turbulent velocity field caused by an instability of their spatial distribution is suggested. The reason for the clustering instability is a combined effect of the particles inertia…
Turbophoresis leading to preferential concentration of inertial particles in regions of low turbulent diffusivity is a unique feature of inhomogeneous turbulent flows, such as free shear flows or wall-bounded flows. In this work, the theory…
We analyzed formation of small-scale inhomogeneities of particle spatial distribution (particle clustering) in a turbulent flow. The particle clustering is a consequence of a spontaneous breakdown of their homogeneous space distribution,…
Preferential concentration of inertial particles in turbulent flow is studied by high resolution direct numerical simulations of two-dimensional turbulence. The formation of network-like regions of high particle density, characterized by a…
Direct numerical simulation is used to investigate effects of turbulent flow in the confined geometry of a face-centered cubic porous unit cell on the transport, clustering, and deposition of fine particles at different Stokes numbers ($St…
The distribution of particle accelerations in turbulence is intermittent, with non-Gaussian tails that are quite different for light and heavy particles. In this article we analyse a closure scheme for the acceleration fluctuations of light…
We consider advection of small inertial particles by a random fluid flow with a strong steady shear component. It is known that inertial particles suspended in a random flow can exhibit clusterization even if the flow is incompressible. We…
Turbophoresis in inhomogeneous turbulent flows leads to the formation of large-scale nonuniform particle number density distributions of inertial particles. This effect is associated with an effective drift velocity directed toward regions…
Direct numerical simulations two-way coupled with inertial particles are used to investigate the particle distribution and two-way coupling effect of low-inertia ($St_{LSM}=0.0625$, $St_{VLSM}=0.009$) and high-inertia ($St_{LSM}=0.475$,…
We investigate the spatial distribution of inertial particles suspended in the bulk of a turbulent inhomogeneous flow. By means of direct numerical simulations of particle trajectories transported by the turbulent Kolmogorov flow, we study…
A statistical description of heavy particles suspended in incompressible rough self-similar flows is developed. It is shown that, differently from smooth flows, particles do not form fractal clusters. They rather distribute inhomogeneously…
We present a numerical study of settling and clustering of small inertial particles in homogeneous and isotropic turbulence. Particles are denser than the fluid, but not in the limit of being much heavier than the displaced fluid. At fixed…
We present experimental observations of the velocity and spatial distribution of inertial particles dispersed in the turbulent downward flow through a vertical channel at $Re_{\tau} = 235$ and $335$. The working fluid is air laden with…
