Turbulence increases the average settling velocity of phytoplankton cells.
It is a well known fact that stirring keeps particles suspended in fluids. This is apparent, for instance, when shaking medicine flasks, when agitating tea deposits in a mug, or when heavy winds fill the air with dust particles. The commonplace nature of such observations makes it easy to accept that this feature will apply to any natural phenomenon as long as the flow is turbulent enough. This...
متن کاملQuantum Turbulence Generated by Grid Motion in Superfluid He
The mechanism by which the quantized vortex tangle in a turbulent superfluid system decays remains little understood [1]. Research into the subject suggests that Kelvin waves play an integral part in the dissipation process [2]. To generate quantum turbulence, a grid is dragged through 4 He which has condensed into the superfluid state. Oscillations in the motion of this grid remain a problem, ...
متن کاملUltrasonic flowmeters in determination of correlation functions of velocity and ultrasound wave fluctuations in grid-generated turbulence
The paper is devoted to the experimental investigation of the statistical characteristics of the grid-generated turbulence produced in a wind tunnel. Ultrasonic time-of-flight method using dual transducers is utilized to develop a methodology for determination of the correlation functions of turbulent velocity and sound speed fluctuations. The ultrasonic flowmeter equation is considered in the ...
متن کاملA New Approach for Obtaining Settling Velocity in a Thickener Using Statistical Regression: A Case Study
In this research work, the parameters affecting the settling velocity within the thickeners were studied by introducing an equivalent shape factor. Several thickener feed samples of different densities including copper, lead and zinc, and coal were prepared. The settling tests were performed on the samples, and the corresponding settling curves were plotted. Using the linear regression analysis...
متن کاملEnergy spectrum of grid-generated He II turbulence.
A grid of bars towed through a sample of He II produces both superfluid turbulence and classical hydrodynamic turbulence. The two velocity fields-in the normal fluid and in the superfluid-have been observed to have the same energy spectral density over a large range of scales. Here, we introduce a characteristic scale l(q)=2 pi(epsilon/kappa(3))(-1/4), where epsilon is the rate of turbulent ene...
