1. Transition in Particle-laden Flows
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents the study of laminar to turbulent transition of particle laden flows. When a flow becomes turbulent, the drag increases one order of magnitude compared to a laminar flow, therefore, much research is devoted to understand and influence the transition. LÄS MER
2. Laminar and turbulent particle laden flows : a numerical and experimental study
Sammanfattning : Particle laden flows are widespread in nature and in industrial applications. Dust storms, geophysical flows, pharmaceutical processes, fluidized beds and blood flow are only a few examples. Both global and local properties of a particle laden flow may alter significantly in comparison to the corresponding single phase flow. LÄS MER
3. Particle-laden Turbulent Wall-bounded Flows in Moderately Complex Geometries
Sammanfattning : Wall-bounded turbulent dispersed multiphase flows occur in a variety of industrial, biological and environmental applications. The complex nature of the carrier and the particulate phase is elevated to a higher level when introducing geometrical complexities such as curved walls. LÄS MER
4. Stability analysis of channel flow laden with small particles
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the stability of particle laden flows. Both modal and non-modal linear analyses have been performed on two-way coupled particleladen flows, where particles are considered spherical, solid and either heavy or light. When heavy particles are considered, only Stokes drag is used as interaction term. LÄS MER
5. Dynamics of particles in fluids: effects of correlations and interactions
Sammanfattning : Particles suspended in turbulent fluid flows are common in Nature and in technological applications. In some cases, the relative dynamics of spherical particles may be of interest. One example is small rain droplets in turbulent clouds. The dynamics of nearby droplets is correlated because they experience a correlated airflow. LÄS MER
