Universal intermittent properties of particle trajectories in highly turbulent flows.

چکیده
We present a collection of eight data sets from state-of-the-art experiments and numerical simulations on turbulent velocity statistics along particle trajectories obtained in different flows with Reynolds numbers in the range R{lambda}in[120:740]. Lagrangian structure functions from all data sets are found to collapse onto each other on a wide range of time lags, pointing towards the existence of a universal behavior, within present statistical convergence, and calling for a unified theoretical description. Parisi-Frisch multifractal theory, suitably extended to the dissipative scales and to the Lagrangian domain, is found to capture the intermittency of velocity statistics over the whole three decades of temporal scales investigated here.

This study is concerned with the prediction of particles’ velocity in a dilute turbulent gas-solidboundary layer flow using a fully Eulerian two-fluid model. The closures required for equationsdescribing the particulate phase are derived from the kinetic theory of granular flows. Gas phaseturbulence is modeled by one-equation model and solid phase turbulence by MLH theory. Resultsof one-way and...

متن کاملDiffusion-inertia Model for Two-phase Turbulent Flows and its Implementation into OpenFOAM
The existing strategies of modelling turbulent two-phase flows can be subdivided into two groups depending on the Lagrangian tracking and Eulerian continuum approaches for handling the particulate phase. In the framework of the Lagrangian method, the particles are assumed to encounter a series of turbulent eddies randomly, and the macroscopic particle properties are determined by solving stocha...
متن کاملStudy of the turbulence modulation in particle-laden flows using LES
One of the most interesting problems in fluid dynamics is the prediction of particleladen turbulent flows. These flows are as diverse as pollutant dispersion in the atmosphere and contaminant transport in industrial applications. An issue of primary importance for moderately dense suspensions concerns how particles affect the turbulent flow itself, the so-called two-way coupling. It is known th...
