Historically, there is little faith in particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) as a tool to make quantitative measurements of thermal counterflow in He II, since tracer particle motion is complicated by influences from the normal fluid,…
Quantum turbulence accompanying thermal counterflow in superfluid $^4$He was recently visualized by the Maryland group, using micron-sized tracer particles of solid hydrogen (J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. {\bf 77}, 111007 (2008)) . In order to…
Based on the theory of the thermodynamic equilibrium in a system of quantum vortices in superfluids in the presence of a counterflow, the influence of a vortex tangle on various thermodynamic phenomena in quantum liquids is studied. Using…
We report computer simulations of the interaction of seeding particles with quantized vortices and with the normal fluid flow in thermal counterflow of superfluid $^4$He. We show that if the particle concentration is too large, the vortex…
We discuss an experimental technique to visualize the motion in the bulk of superfluid $^4$He by tracking micron-sized solid hydrogen tracers. The behavior of the tracers is complex since they may be trapped by the quantized vortices while…
Heat is carried in superfluid He-4 by the motion of the normal fluid$^{1}$, a counterflowing superfluid component serving to eliminate any net mass flow. It has been known for many years that above a critical heat current the superfluid…
An injection system for polymer particles, with diameters ranging from 1 to 6 $\mu$m, has been developed for visualizing flows in superfluid $^4$He at temperatures down to 0.14 K. Using an ultrasound transducer, bursts of particles were…
A recent Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) experiment in He II counterflow around a cylindrical obstacle showed the existence of apparently stationary normal fluid ddies both downstream (at the rear) and upstream (in front) of the cylinder.…
Recent experiments have demonstrated a remarkable progress in implementing and use of the Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and particle tracking techniques for the study of turbulence in He4. However, an interpretation of the experimental…
Transient heat transfer in superfluid $^4$He (He II) is a complex process that involves the interplay of the unique counterflow heat-transfer mode, the emission of second-sound waves, and the creation of quantized vortices. Many past…
We perform a numerical analysis of superfluid turbulence produced by thermal counterflow in He II by using the vortex filament model. Counterflow in a low aspect ratio channel is known to show the transition from laminar flow to the two…
We perform numerical simulations of finite temperature quantum turbulence produced through thermal counterflow in superfluid $^4$He, using the vortex filament model. We investigate the effects of solid boundaries along one of the Cartesian…
Despite being a quantum two-fluid system, superfluid helium-4 (He II) is observed to behave similarly to classical fluids when a flow is generated by mechanical forcing. This similarity has brought up the feasibility of utilizing He II for…
The coupled dynamics of the two-fluid model of superfluid $^4$He is numerically studied for quantum turbulence of the thermal counterflow in a square channel. We combine the vortex filament model of the superfluid and the Navier-Stokes…
Like many quantum fluids, superfluid helium-4 (He II) can be considered as a mixture of two miscible fluid components: an inviscid superfluid and a viscous normal fluid consisting of thermal quasiparticles [1]. A mutual friction between the…
Superfluid helium is an intimate mixture of a viscous normal fluid, with continuous vorticity, and an inviscid superfluid, where vorticity is constrained to thin, stable topological defects. One mechanism to generate turbulence in this…
We perform a numerical analysis of counterflow quantum turbulence of superfluid 4He with nonuni- form flows by using the vortex filament model. In recent visualization experiments nonuniform laminar flows of the normal fluid, namely,…
We propose and validate a novel experimental technique to measure two-point statistics of turbulent flows. It consists in spreading rigid fibers in the flow and tracking their position and orientation in time and therefore been named…
We investigate the thermal counterflow of the superfluid $^4$He by numerically simulating three-dimensional fully coupled dynamics of the two fluids, namely quantized vortices and a normal fluid. We analyze the velocity fluctuations of the…
We describe a new technique, using thin lines of triplet-state He2 molecular tracers created by femtosecond-laser field-ionization of helium atoms, for visualizing the flow of the normal fluid in superfluid 4He, together with its…
