Resuspension of Small Particles from Multilayer Deposits in Turbulent Boundary Layers
F. Zhang, M. Reeks, M. Kissane +1
We present a hybrid stochastic model for the resuspension of micron-size particles from multilayer deposits in a fully-developed turbulent boundary layer. The rate of removal of pa…
In search of random uncorrelated particle motion (RUM) in a simple random flow field
Michael W. Reeks, Luca Fabbro, Alfredo Soldati
DNS studies of dispersed particle motion in isotropic homogeneous turbulence [1] have revealed the existence of a component of random uncorrelated motion (RUM)dependent on the part…
Inertial-particle dynamics in turbulent flows: caustics, concentration fluctuations, and random uncorrelated motion
K. Gustavsson, E. Meneguz, M. Reeks +1
We discuss the relation between three recent approaches of describing the dynamics and the spatial distribution of particles suspended in turbulent flows: phase-space singularities…
Particle drift in turbulent flows: the influence of local structure and inhomogeneity
Michael W. Reeks
The way particles interact with turbulent structures, particularly in regions of high vorticity and strain rate, has been investigated in simulations of homogeneous turbulence and…
Particle Resuspension in Turbulent Boundary Layers and the Influence of Non-Gaussian Removal Forces
F. Zhang, M. Reeks, M. Kissane
The work described is concerned with the way micron-size particles attached to a surface are resuspended when exposed to a turbulent flow. An improved version of the Rock'n'Roll mo…
