What Determines Size Distributions of Heavy Drops in a Synthetic Turbulent Flow?

Jens C. Zahnow, Ulrike Feudel

We present results from an individual particle based model for the collision, coagulation and fragmentation of heavy drops moving in a turbulent flow. Such a model framework can he…

Coagulation and fragmentation dynamics of inertial particles

Jens C. Zahnow, Rafael D. Vilela, Ulrike Feudel +1

Inertial particles suspended in many natural and industrial flows undergo coagulation upon collisions and fragmentation if their size becomes too large or if they experience large…

Particle-based modelling of aggregation and fragmentation processes: Fractal-like aggregates

Jens C. Zahnow, Joeran Maerz, Ulrike Feudel

The incorporation of particle inertia into the usual mean field theory for particle aggregation and fragmentation in fluid flows is still an unsolved problem. We therefore suggest…

Aggregation and fragmentation dynamics of inertial particles in chaotic flows

Jens C. Zahnow, Rafael D. Vilela, Ulrike Feudel +1

Inertial particles advected in chaotic flows often accumulate in strange attractors. While moving in these fractal sets they usually approach each other and collide. Here we consid…

Moving Finite Size Particles in a Flow: A Physical Example for Pitchfork Bifurcations of Tori

Jens C. Zahnow, Ulrike Feudel

The motion of small, spherical particles of finite size in fluid flows at low Reynolds numbers is described by the strongly nonlinear Maxey-Riley equations. Due to the Stokes drag…
