The collision rate of particles suspended in turbulent flow is critical to particle agglomeration and droplet coalescence. The collision kernel can be evaluated by the radial distribution function (RDF) and radial relative velocity (RV) between particles at small separations $r$. Previously, the smallest $r$ was limited to roughly the Kolmogorov length $eta$ due to particle position uncertainty and image overlap. We report a new approach to measure RDF and RV near contact ($r/a: approx$ 2.07, $a$ particle radius) overcoming these limitations. Three-dimensional particle tracking velocimetry using four-pulse Shake-the-Box algorithm recorded short particle tracks with the interpolated midpoints registered as particle positions to avoid image overlap. This strategy further allows removal of mismatched tracks using their characteristic false RV. We measured RDF and RV in a one-meter-diameter isotropic turbulence chamber with Taylor Reynolds number $Re_lambda=324$ with particles of 12-16 $mu$m radius and Stokes number $approx$ 0.7. While at large $r$ the measured RV agrees with the literature, when $r<20eta$ the first moment of negative RV is 10 times higher than direct numerical simulations of non-interacting particles. Likewise, when $r>eta$, RDF scales as $r^{-0.39}$ reflecting RDF scaling for polydisperse particles in the literature , but when $rlessapproxeta$ RDF scales as $r^{-6}$, yielding 1000 times higher near-contact RDF than simulations. Such extreme clustering and relative velocity enhancement can be attributed to particle-particle interactions. Uncertainty analysis substantiates the observed trends. This first-ever simultaneous RDF and RV measurement at small separations provides a clear glimpse into the clustering and relative velocities of particles in turbulence near-contact.

The radial relative velocity between particles suspended in turbulent flow plays a critical role in droplet collision and growth. We present a simple and accurate approach to RV measurement in isotropic turbulence - planar 4-frame particle tracking v
elocimetry - using routine PIV hardware. This study demonstrates the feasibility of accurately measuring RV using routine hardware and verifies, for the first time, the path-history and inertial filtering effects on particle-pair RV at large particle separations experimentally.
The effects of Reynolds number and Stokes number on particle-pair relative velocity (RV) were investigated systematically using a recently developed planar four-frame particle tracking technique in a novel homogeneous and isotropic turbulence chamber.
We use an extended laser Doppler technique to track optically the velocity of individual particles in a high Reynolds number turbulent flow. The particle sizes are of the order of the Kolmogorov scale and the time resolution, 30 microseconds, resolve
s the fastest scales of the fluid motion. Particles are tracked for mean durations of the order of 10 Kolmogorov time scales. The fastest scales of the particle motion are resolved and the particle acceleration is measured. For neutrally buoyant particles, our measurement matches the performance of the silicon strip detector technique introduced at Cornell University cite{Voth,MordantCornell}. This reference dynamics is then compared to that of slightly heavier solid particles (density 1.4) and to air bubbles. We observe that the acceleration variance strongly depends on the particle density: bubbles experience higher accelerations than fluid particles, while heavier particles have lower accelerations. We find that the probability distribution functions of accelerations normalized to the variance are very close although the air bubbles have a much faster dynamics.
In this paper we present a new model for modeling the diffusion and relative dispersion of particles in homogeneous isotropic turbulence. We use an Heisenberg-like Hamiltonian to incorporate spatial correlations between fluid particles, which are mod
eled by stochastic processes correlated in time. We are able to reproduce the ballistic regime in the mean squared displacement of single particles and the transition to a normal diffusion regime for long times. For the dispersion of particle pairs we find a $t^{2}$-dependence of the mean squared separation at short times and a $t$-dependence for long ones. For intermediate times indications for a Richardson $t^{3}$ law are observed in certain situations. Finally the influence of inertia of real particles on the dispersion is investigated.
Multiscale statistical analyses of inertial particle distributions are presented to investigate the statistical signature of clustering and void regions in particle-laden incompressible isotropic turbulence. Three-dimensional direct numerical simulat
ions of homogeneous isotropic turbulence at high Reynolds number ($Re_lambda gtrsim 200$) with up to $10^9$ inertial particles are performed for Stokes numbers ranging from $0.05$ to $5.0$. Orthogonal wavelet analysis is then applied to the computed particle number density fields. Scale-dependent skewness and flatness values of the particle number density distributions are calculated and the influence of Reynolds number $Re_lambda$ and Stokes number $St$ is assessed. For $St sim 1.0$, both the scale-dependent skewness and flatness values become larger as the scale decreases, suggesting intermittent clustering at small scales. For $St le 0.2$, the flatness at intermediate scales, i.e. for scales larger than the Kolmogorov scale and smaller than the integral scale of the flow, increases as $St$ increases, and the skewness exhibits negative values at the intermediate scales. The negative values of the skewness are attributed to void regions. These results indicate that void regions at the intermediate sales are pronounced and intermittently distributed for such small Stokes numbers. As $Re_lambda$ increases, the flatness increases slightly. For $Re_lambda ge 328$, the skewness shows negative values at large scales, suggesting that void regions are pronounced at large scales, while clusters are pronounced at small scales.
