Dept. of Mechanical Engineering Graduate Seminar
PRESENTATION: Our work is motivated by the need to understand and predict turbulent particle-laden flows across a range of environmental and industrial applications. In this talk, we consider a relatively canonical yet challenging experimental flow designed to be accessible to direct numerical simulation. A spherical particle in a turbulent boundary layer undergoes complicated particle-wall and particle-turbulence interactions. Particles with...
