Effects of the finite particle size in turbulent wall-bounded flows of dense suspensions
, 2018 We use interface-resolved simulations to study finite-size effects in turbulent channel flow of neutrally-buoyant spheres. Two cases with particle sizes differing by a factor of 2, at the same solid volume fraction of 20% and bulk Reynolds number are ...

Air cavities at the inner cylinder of turbulent Taylor-Couette flow [PDF]
, 2018 Air cavities, i.e. air layers developed behind cavitators, are seen as a promising drag reducing method in the maritime industry. Here we utilize the Taylor-Couette (TC) geometry, i.e. the flow between two concentric, independently rotating cylinders, to

Characteristics of stratified flows of Newtonian/non-Newtonian shear-thinning fluids
, 2017 Exact solutions for laminar stratified flows of Newtonian/non-Newtonian shear-thinning fluids in horizontal and inclined channels are presented. An iterative algorithm is proposed to compute the laminar solution for the general case of a Carreau non ...

Trajectory analysis for non-Brownian inertial suspensions in simple shear flow [PDF]
, 2006 We analyse pair trajectories of equal-sized spherical particles in simple shear flow for small but finite Stokes numbers. The Stokes number, $\mbox{\textit{St}} \,{=}\, \dot{\gamma} \tau_p$, is a dimensionless measure of particle inertia; here, $\tau_p ...
