Modeling high-speed gas-particle flows relevant to spacecraft landings: A review and perspectives
Jesse Capecelatro
The interactions between rocket exhaust plumes and the surface of extraterrestrial bodies during spacecraft landings involve complex multiphase flow dynamics that pose significant…
Fluid-mediated sources of granular temperature at finite Reynolds numbers
Aaron M. Lattanzi, Vahid Tavanashad, Shankar Subramaniam +1
We derive analytical solutions for hydrodynamic sources and sinks to granular temperature in moderately dense suspensions of elastic particles at finite Reynolds numbers. Modeling…
On the Utility of a Well-Mixed Model for Predicting Disease Transmission on an Urban Bus
Zhihang Zhang, Jesse Capecelatro, Kevin Maki
The transport of virus-laden aerosols from a host to a susceptible person is governed by complex turbulent airflow, and physics related to breathing, coughing and sneezing, mechani…
Multiphase turbulence modeling using sparse regression and gene expression programming
S. Beetham, J. Capecelatro
In recent years, there has been an explosion of machine learning techniques for turbulence closure modeling, though many rely on augmenting existing models. While this has proven s…
On the thermal entrance length of moderately dense gas-particle flows
S. Beetham, A. Lattanzi, J. Capecelatro
The dissipative nature of heat transfer relaxes thermal flows to an equilibrium state that is devoid of temperature gradients. The distance to reach an equilibrium temperature -- t…
A stochastic model for the hydrodynamic force in Euler--Lagrange simulations of particle-laden flows
Aaron M. Lattanzi, Vahid Tavanashad, Shankar Subramaniam +1
Standard Eulerian--Lagrangian (EL) methods generally employ drag force models that only represent the mean hydrodynamic force acting upon a particle-laden suspension. Consequently,…
