The effect of Reynolds number on inertial particle dynamics in isotropic turbulence. Part I: Simulations without gravitational effects
Peter J. Ireland, Andrew D. Bragg, Lance R. Collins
In this study, we analyze the statistics of both individual inertial particles and inertial particle pairs in direct numerical simulations of homogeneous isotropic turbulence in th…
The effect of Reynolds number on inertial particle dynamics in isotropic turbulence. Part II: Simulations with gravitational effects
Peter J. Ireland, Andrew D. Bragg, Lance R. Collins
In Part I of this study, we analyzed the motion of inertial particles in isotropic turbulence in the absence of gravity using direct numerical simulation (DNS). Here, in Part II, w…
On the relationship between the non-local clustering mechanism and preferential concentration
Andrew D. Bragg, Peter J. Ireland, Lance R. Collins
`Preferential concentration' (\emph{Phys. Fluids} \textbf{A3}:1169--78, 1991) refers to the clustering of inertial particles in the high-strain, low-rotation regions of turbulence.…
