We study the turbulent square duct flow of dense suspensions of neutrally-buoyant spherical particles. Direct numerical simulations (DNS) are performed in the range of volume fractions $\phi=0-0.2$, using the immersed boundary method (IBM)…
Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and Particle Tracking Velocimetry (PTV) have been employed to investigate the dynamics of finite-size spherical particles, slightly heavier than the carrier fluid, in a horizontal turbulent square duct flow.…
Dense particle suspensions are widely encountered in many applications and in environmental flows. While many previous studies investigate their rheological properties in laminar flows, little is known on the behaviour of these suspensions…
We present a direct comparison between interface-resolved and one-way-coupled point-particle direct numerical simulations (DNS) of gravity-free turbulent channel flow laden with small inertial particles, with high particle-to-fluid density…
Direct numerical simulations (DNS) of rotating pipe flows up to $Re_{\tau} \approx 3000$ are carried out to investigate drag reduction effects associated with axial rotation, extending previous studies carried out at a modest Reynolds…
Suspensions of finite-size solid particles in a turbulent pipe flow are found in many industrial and technical flows. Due to the ample parameter space consisting of particle size, concentration, density and Reynolds number, a complete…
We have conducted a direct numerical simulation (DNS) study of dilute turbulent particulate flow in a vertical plane channel, considering thousands of finite-size rigid particles with resolved phase interfaces. The particle diameter…
The dynamics of rigid particle suspensions in a wall-bounded laminar flow present several non-trivial and intriguing features, including particle ordering, lateral transport, and the appearance of stable, preferential locations like the…

Well-resolved direct numerical simulations (DNSs) have been performed of the flow in a smooth circular pipe of radius $R$ and axial length $10\pi R$ at friction Reynolds numbers up to $Re_\tau=5200$. Various turbulence statistics are…
Direct numerical simulations (DNS) are one of the main ab initio tools to study turbulent flows. However, due to their considerable computational cost, DNS are primarily restricted to canonical flows at moderate Reynolds numbers, in which…
We carry out Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) of flows in closed rectangular ducts with several aspect ratios. The Navier-Stokes equations are discretized through a second-order finite difference scheme, with non-uniform grids in two…

We report experimental observations of turbulent flow with spherical particles in a square duct. Three particle sizes namely: $2H/d_{p}$ = 40, 16 and 9 ($2H$ being the duct full height and $d_{p}$ being the particle diameter) are…
Shear flow of dense, non-Brownian suspensions is simulated using the discrete element method, taking particle contact and hydrodynamic lubrication into account. The resulting flow regimes are mapped in the parametric space of solid volume…
