Quantifying turbulence induced segregation of inertial particles
Enrico Calzavarini, Massimo Cencini, Detlef Lohse +1
Particles with density different from that of the advecting turbulent fluid cluster due to the different response of light/heavy particles to turbulent fluctuations. This study foc…
Acceleration of heavy and light particles in turbulence: comparison between experiments and direct numerical simulations
R. Volk, E. Calzavarini, G. Verhille +4
We compare experimental data and numerical simulations for the dynamics of inertial particles with finite density in turbulence. In the experiment, bubbles and solid particles are…
Exponentially growing solutions in homogeneous Rayleigh-Benard convection
E. Calzavarini, C. R. Doering, J. D. Gibbon +3
It is shown that homogeneous Rayleigh-Benard flow, i.e., Rayleigh-Benard turbulence with periodic boundary conditions in all directions and a volume forcing of the temperature fiel…
Mesoscopic modeling of a two-phase flow in the presence of boundaries: the Contact Angle
R. Benzi, L. Biferale, M. Sbragaglia +2
We present a mesoscopic model, based on the Boltzmann Equation, for the interaction between a solid wall and a non-ideal fluid. We present an analytic derivation of the contact ang…
Rayleigh and Prandtl number scaling in the bulk of Rayleigh-Benard turbulence
Enrico Calzavarini, Detlef Lohse, Federico Toschi +1
The Rayleigh (Ra) and Prandtl (Pr) number scaling of the Nusselt number Nu, the Reynolds number Re, the temperature fluctuations, and the kinetic and thermal dissipation rates is s…
