On the size and shape of condensing steam jets and plumes
N. Fourcade, F. Poydenot, P. Langlois +4
Droplet-laden cloud dynamics emerge from coupled phase transitions and turbulent mixing. Combining experiments and mean-field theory, we establish scaling laws for steam-injected c…
Pathways from nucleation to raindrops
Florian Poydenot, Bruno Andreotti
Cloud droplets grow via vapor condensation and collisional aggregation. Upon reaching approximately , their inertia allows them to capture smaller droplets du…
Collision efficiency of droplets across diffusive, electrostatic and inertial regimes
Florian Poydenot, Bruno Andreotti
Rain drops form in clouds by collision of submillimetric droplets falling under gravity: larger drops fall faster than smaller ones and collect them on their path. The puzzling sta…
Turbulent dispersion of breath by the wind
Florian Poydenot, Ismael Abdourahamane, Elsa Caplain +6
The pioneering work of G.I. Taylor on the turbulent dispersion of aerosols is exactly one century old and provides an original way of introducing both diffusive processes and turbu…
