Breakup of small aggregates driven by turbulent hydrodynamical stress.
The breakup of small solid aggregates in homogeneous and isotropic turbulence is studied theoretically and by using direct numerical simulations at high Reynolds number, Reλ =/~ 400. We show that turbulent fluctuations of the hydrodynamic stress along the aggregate trajectory play a key role in determining the aggregate mass distribution function. The differences between turbulent and laminar f...
متن کاملComputational Fluid Dynamic Modelling of Atomisation Processes in Turbulent Flows
Atomisation of liquids is frequently encountered in the liquid-gas flows used in many practical chemical and process engineering applications, and an ability to reliably predict such flows is of benefit to the optimisation and performance improvement of existing equipment and processes, as well as the evaluation of retrofit options and the design of new equipment, systems and plant. This paper ...

متن کاملCurrent trends in modelling research for turbulent aerodynamic flows.
The engineering tools of choice for the computation of practical engineering flows have begun to migrate from those based on the traditional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes approach to methodologies capable, in theory if not in practice, of accurately predicting some instantaneous scales of motion in the flow. The migration has largely been driven by both the success of Reynolds-averaged method...
متن کاملBubble breakup in a turbulent shear layer
The breakup of a millimetre size buoyantly rising bubble encountering a horizontal plane turbulent jet is experimentally investigated using high-speed shadowgraphy and acoustic techniques. The bubble diameter to jet height ratio is 0.75 and the jet height based Reynolds number is 4000. The high-speed imaging was recorded at 7 kHz simultaneous with hydrophone output at 100 kHz. Bubble breakup ev...
