Rotation of anisotropic particles in Rayleigh-Bénard turbulence
Linfeng Jiang, Enrico Calzavarini, Chao Sun
Inertialess anisotropic particles in a Rayleigh-Bénard turbulent flow show maximal tumbling rates for weakly oblate shapes, in contrast with the universal behaviour observed in dev…
Anisotropic particles in two-dimensional convective turbulence
Enrico Calzavarini, Linfeng Jiang, Chao Sun
The orientational dynamics of inertialess anisotropic particles transported by two-dimensional convective turbulent flows display a coexistence of regular and chaotic features. We…
Drag reduction in boiling Taylor-Couette turbulence
Rodrigo Ezeta, Dennis Bakhuis, Sander G. Huisman +2
We create a highly controlled lab environment-accessible to both global and local monitoring-to analyse turbulent boiling flows and in particular their shear stress in a statistica…
Statistics, plumes and azimuthally traveling waves in ultimate Taylor-Couette turbulent vortices
Andreas Froitzheim, Rodrigo Ezeta, Sander G. Huisman +4
In this paper, we experimentally study the influence of large-scale Taylor rolls on the small-scale statistics and the flow organization in fully turbulent Taylor-Couette flow {for…
Statistics of rigid fibers in strongly sheared turbulence
Dennis Bakhuis, Varghese Mathai, Ruben A. Verschoof +4
Practically all flows are turbulent in nature and contain some kind of irregularly-shaped particles, e.g. dirt, pollen, or life forms such as bacteria or insects. The effect of the…
Controlling secondary flow in Taylor-Couette turbulence through spanwise-varying roughness
Dennis Bakhuis, Rodrigo Ezeta, Pieter Berghout +7
Highly turbulent Taylor-Couette flow with spanwise-varying roughness is investigated experimentally and numerically (direct numerical simulations (DNS) with an immersed boundary me…
