Clustering, fronts, and heat transfer in turbulent suspensions of heavy particles
Jeremie Bec, Holger Homann, Giorgio Krstulovic
Heavy inertial particles transported by a turbulent flow are shown to concentrate in the regions where an advected passive scalar, such as temperature, displays very strong front-l…

Gravity-driven enhancement of heavy particle clustering in turbulent flow
Jeremie Bec, Holger Homann, Samriddhi Sankar Ray
Heavy particles suspended in a turbulent flow settle faster than in a still fluid. This effect stems from a preferential sampling of the regions where the fluid flows downward and…
