Journal ArticleDOI
Fluid particle accelerations in fully developed turbulence
TL;DR: In this article, acceleration measurements using a detector adapted from high-energy physics to track particles in a laboratory water flow at Reynolds numbers up to 63,000 were reported, indicating that the acceleration is an extremely intermittent variable.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of particle accelerations in fully developed turbulence
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used silicon strip detectors (originally developed for the CLEO III high-energy particle physics experiment) to measure fluid particle trajectories in turbulence with temporal resolution of up to 70000 frames per second.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of Particle Accelerations in Fully Developed Turbulence
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used silicon strip detectors to measure fluid particle trajectories in turbulence with temporal resolution of up to 70,000 frames per second, which allows the Kolmogorov time scale of a turbulent water flow to be fully resolved for 140 = 500.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental Lagrangian acceleration probability density function measurement
TL;DR: In this article, the acceleration component probability distribution function at Rλ =690 to probabilities of less than 10−7 was presented, which is an improvement of more than an order of magnitude over past measurements and allows us to conclude that the fourth moment converges and the flatness is approximately 55.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three-Dimensional Structure of the Lagrangian Acceleration in Turbulent Flows
TL;DR: The time dynamics of the acceleration components is found to be typical of the dissipation scales, whereas the magnitude evolves over longer times, possibly close to the integral time scale.
