Journal ArticleDOI
Heavy particle concentration in turbulence at dissipative and inertial scales.
Jérémie Bec,Luca Biferale,Massimo Cencini,Alessandra S. Lanotte,Stefano Musacchio,Federico Toschi +5 more
TL;DR: Spatial distributions of heavy particles suspended in an incompressible isotropic and homogeneous turbulent flow are investigated by means of high resolution direct numerical simulations and it is shown that particles form fractal clusters with properties independent of the Reynolds number.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acceleration statistics of heavy particles in turbulence
Jérémie Bec,Luca Biferale,Guido Boffetta,Antonio Celani,Massimo Cencini,Alessandra S. Lanotte,Stefano Musacchio,Federico Toschi +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the results of direct numerical simulations of heavy particle transport in homogeneous, isotropic, fully developed turbulence, up to resolution $512^3$ ( $R_\lambda\approx 185$ ).
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics and statistics of heavy particles in turbulent flows
Massimo Cencini,Jérémie Bec,Luca Biferale,Guido Boffetta,Antonio Celani,Alessandra S. Lanotte,Stefano Musacchio,Federico Toschi +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, direct numerical simulations of turbulent flows seeded with millions of passive inertial particles are presented, where the maximum Reynolds number is Re λ∼ 200 and the acceleration fluctuations as a function of the Stokes number in the range St ∈ [0.16:3].
Journal ArticleDOI
Inverse energy cascade in three-dimensional isotropic turbulence
TL;DR: It is shown here that energy flux is always reversed when mirror symmetry is broken, leading to a distribution of helicity in the system with a well-defined sign at all wave numbers, showing that both 2D and 3D properties naturally coexist in all flows in nature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Turbulence in More than Two and Less than Three Dimensions
TL;DR: A novel phenomenological scenario dominated by the splitting of the turbulent cascade emerges both from the theoretical analysis of passive scalar turbulence and from direct numerical simulations of Navier-Stokes turbulence.
