The study of thermal radiation interacting with particle-laden turbulence is of great
importance in a wide range of scientific and engineering applications. The fundamental and …

This study presents direct numerical simulations of turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection in
non-colloidal suspensions, with special focus on the heat transfer modifications in the flow …

Particle-laden turbulent flows subject to radiative heating are relevant in many applications,
for example concentrated solar power receivers. Efficient and accurate simulations provide …

The aggregation of microplastic and biogenic particles in upper-ocean turbulence is studied
by means of direct numerical simulations and Lagrangian tracking of point particles. The …

The effects of polydispersity on radiative and interfacial convective heat transfer are
investigated in particle–gas two-phase media for solar particle receiver applications. Non …

We study the effect of temperature-dependent viscosity on the preferential concentration of
bidispersed, externally-heated solid particles in decaying isotropic turbulence via direct …

We study the inertial settling of suspensions of flexible and rigid fibers using an immersed
boundary method. The fibers considered are inextensible and slender, with an aspect ratio …

Existing hemolysis algorithms are often constructed for laminar flows that expose red blood
cells (RBCs) to a constant rate of shear. It remains an open question whether such models …

Radiation absorption by preferentially concentrated particles in a turbulent square duct flow
is studied experimentally. The particle-laden flow is exposed to near-infrared radiation, and …
