Direct numerical simulations (DNS) of particle-laden turbulent flow in straight, mildly curved and strongly bent pipes are performed in which the solid phase is modelled as small heavy spherical particles. A total of seven populations of…
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…
From particle lifting in atmospheric boundary layers to dust ingestion in jet engines, the transport and deposition of inertial particles in wall-bounded turbulent flows are prevalent in both nature and industry. Due to triboelectrification…
The dynamics of dilute micron-sized spherical inertial particles in turbulent duct flows is studied by means of direct numerical simulations of the carrier phase turbulence with one-way coupled Lagrangian particles. The geometries are a…
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…
Heavy particles suspended in turbulent flow possess inertia and are ejected from violent vortical structures by centrifugal forces. Once piled up along particle paths, this small-scale mechanism leads to an effective large-scale drift. This…
Drag for wall-bounded flows is directly related to flux of spanwise vorticity outward from the wall. In turbulent flows a key contribution arises from cross-stream "vorticity cascade" by nonlinear advection and stretching of vorticity. We…
We study the turbulent flow of the density-stratified fluid around a small translating (either passively or self-propelled) particle. It was found recently [A. M. Ardekani and R. Stocker, Phys. Rev. Lett. vol. 105, 084502 (2010)] that…
We present the results of a Direct Numerical Simulation of a particle-laden spatially developing turbulent boundary layer up to Re{\theta} = 2500. Two main features differentiate the behavior of inertial particles in a zero-…
Directed transport of overdamped Brownian particles in an asymmetrically periodic tube is investigated in the presence of the tube wall vibration. From the Brownian dynamics simulations we can find that the perpendicular wall vibration can…
The effect of curvature and how it induces and enhances the transport of colloidal particles driven through narrow channels represent an unexplored research avenue. Here we combine experiments and simulations to investigate the dynamics of…
We use theory and Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) to explore the average vertical velocities and spatial distributions of inertial particles settling in a wall-bounded turbulent flow. The theory is based on the exact phase-space equation…
We report on an investigation of the vertical transport of tracer particles released within a shallow, continuously-forced flow by means of numerical simulations. The investigation is motivated by the shallow flows encountered in many…
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…
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 interaction between near-wall turbulence and wall curvature is described for the incompressible flow in a plane channel with a small concave-convex-concave bump on the bottom wall, with height comparable to the wall-normal location of…
We study the translational and rotational dynamics of neutrally-buoyant finite-size spheroids in hydrodynamic turbulence by means of fully resolved numerical simulations. We examine axisymmetric shapes, from oblate to prolate, and the…
We investigate the mechanisms by which inertial solid particles modulate turbulence and alter the fluid mass transport in dense turbulent liquid-solid flows. To this end, we perform Euler-Lagrange simulations at friction Reynolds number…
The particle inertial effects on turbulence modulation in particle-laden channel flow are investigated through four-way coupled point-particle direct numerical simulations, with the mass loading fixed at $0.6$ and friction Stokes number…
The orientational dynamics of inertialess anisotropic particles transported by two-dimensional convective turbulent flows display a coexistence of regular and chaotic features. We numerically demonstrate that very elongated particles (rods)…
