Particle-laden jets: particle distribution and back-reaction on the flow

On particle–like jets

Under which conditions does a jet appear as a particle–like signal from the hidden realm of quarks and gluons? Motivated by this question jet clustering conditions are formulated, in order to characterize jet clustering algorithms, which can be used for a determination of particle–like jets. Jets are understood as particle–like, if they behave like free particles. The simplest solution to the j...

Point-Particle DNS and LES of Particle-Laden Turbulent flow - a state-of-the-art review

Particle-laden or droplet-laden turbulent flows occur in many industrial applications and in natural phenomena. Knowledge about the properties of these flows can help to improve the design of unit operations in industry and to predict for instance the occurrence of rain showers. This knowledge can be obtained from experimental research and from numerical simulations. In this paper a review is g...

Granular and Particle-Laden Flows

This research programme at the Newton Institute was devoted to improving the understanding and mathematical modelling of granular and particle-laden fluid systems as they arise in nature, in the laboratory and in industry. Geophysical examples of granular and particle-laden flows include rock avalanches, debris flows, mud flows and turbulent boundary layers with suspended particles, such as vol...

Particle - laden tubeless siphon

A tubeless siphon was created by sucking a 1% aqueous Polyox† solution laden with particles from a beaker into a cylinder by moving a piston. The piston speed and particle concentration were varied. At very high rates of withdrawal, all the liquid could be removed before the siphon broke. In this case, the beaker was completely cleaned without a trace of liquid. The addition of small concentrat...
