Particle-Laden Turbulence: Progress and Perspectives

Luca Brandt et al.

Summary: This review discusses the recent progress in understanding the physics of particle-laden turbulence, focusing on spherical particles in homogeneous and wall-bounded flows. The analysis of recent data suggests that conclusions from zero gravity conditions cannot be generalized, and the particle response time alone is insufficient to characterize the dynamics of finite-size particles. Further studies are needed to bridge the gap between dilute and concentrated conditions, and to explore the fluid dynamics of suspensions with theoretical tools accounting for both phases.

Hydrodynamic interactions and extreme particle clustering in turbulence

Andrew D. Bragg et al.

Summary: Expanding on recent observations, this study provides detailed experimental data on the radial distribution function (rdf) of inertial particles in isotropic turbulence for different Stokes numbers (St). The results indicate explosive growth of rdf with decreasing separation, showing a r(-6) scaling near the collision radius regardless of St or particle radius. By correcting errors in previous theories and comparing with experiments, this study reveals significant underestimation of rdf by previous theory and explores alternative mechanisms that fail to explain the discrepancy. This suggests the presence of new, unidentified physical mechanisms that require further investigation and new theories.
