Rapid growth of cloud droplets by turbulence
Vassilios Dallas, J. Christos Vassilicos
Assuming perfect collision efficiency, we demonstrate that turbulence can initiate and sustain the rapid growth of very small water droplets in air even when these droplets are too…
A turbulent premixed flame on fractal-grid generated turbulence
Nikos Soulopoulos, Johannes Kerl, Frank Beyrau +3
A space-filling, low blockage fractal grid is used as a novel turbulence generator in a premixed turbulent combustion experiment. In contrast to the power law decay of a standard t…
Strong polymer-turbulence interactions in viscoelastic turbulent channel flow
Vassilios Dallas, J. Christos Vassilicos, Geoffrey F. Hewitt
This paper is focused on the fundamental mechanism(s) of viscoelastic turbulence that lead to polymer induced turbulent drag reduction phenomenon. A great challenge in this problem…
