A general, two-way coupled, point-particle formulation that accounts for the disturbance created by the dispersed particles in obtaining the undisturbed fluid flow field needed for accurate computation of the force closure models is presented. Specifically, equations for the disturbance field created by the presence of particles are first derived based on the inter-phase momentum coupling force in a finite-volume formulation. Solution to the disturbance field is obtained using two approaches: (i) direct computation of the disturbance velocity and pressure using the reaction force due to particles at computational control volumes, and (ii) a linearized, approximate computation of the disturbance velocity field, specifically applicable for low Reynolds number flows. In both approaches, the computed disturbance field is used to obtain the undisturbed fluid velocity necessary to model the aerodynamic forces on the particle. The two approaches are thoroughly evaluated for a single particle in an unbounded and wall-bounded flow on uniform, anisotropic, as well as unstructured grids to show accurate computation of the particle motion and inter-phase coupling. The approach is straightforward and can be applied to any numerical formulation for particle-laden flows including Euler-Lagrange as well as Euler-Euler formulations.

A hybrid parallel approach for fully resolved simulations of particle-laden flows in sediment transport is proposed. To overcome the challenges of load imbalance in the traditional domain decomposition method when encountering highly uneven distribut
ions of particles in space, we develop a hybrid parallel approach adopting the domain decomposition method for the carrier phase and a mirror domain technique for the disperse phase. We modify the mirror domain technique originally developed for point particles to fully resolved particle simulations, which are more challenging since a finite-sized particle may be split into different subdomains; thus, more complex treatments of particle-fluid interactions are needed. By utilizing the mirror domain technique, in which each processor handles nearly the same number of particles regardless of the particle spatial distribution, excellent load balance is achieved. The present hybrid parallel approach also shows strong scalability and high parallel efficiency in a test of a fully resolved simulation case of sediment transport. Furthermore, a novel memory optimization method is proposed for spherical particles of equal size, which can substantially reduce the memory cost and enable the simulation of millions of fully resolved particles on a common highly parallel computing platform. Our code is validated by several benchmark cases, and the results show good agreement with experimental and computational data in the literature.
We present a comparison of different particles velocity and acceleration statistics in two paradigmatic turbulent swirling flows: the von Karman flow in a laboratory experiment, and the Taylor-Green flow in direct numerical simulations. Tracers, as w
ell as inertial particles, are considered. Results indicate that, in spite of the differences in boundary conditions and forcing mechanisms, scaling properties and statistical quantities reveal similarities between both flows, pointing to new methods to calibrate and compare models for particles dynamics in numerical simulations, as well as to characterize the dynamics of particles in simulations and experiments.
We conduct depth-resolved three-dimensional Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) of bi-disperse turbidity currents interacting with complex bottom topography in the form of a Gaussian bump. Several flow characteristics such as suspended particle mass,
instantaneous wall shear stress, transient deposit height are shown via videos. Furthermore, we investigate the influence of the obstacle on the vortical structure and sedimentation of particles by comparing the results against the same setup and but with a flat bottom surface. We observe that the obstacle influences the deposition of coarse particles mainly in the vicinity of the obstacle due to lateral deflection, whereas for the sedimentation of fine particles the effects of topographical features are felt further downstream. The results shown in this fluid dynamics video help us develop a fundamental understanding of the dynamics of turbidity currents interacting with complex seafloor topography.
Expiratory events, such as coughs, are often pulsatile in nature and result in vortical flow structures that transport respiratory particles. In this work, direct numerical simulation (DNS) of turbulent pulsatile jets, coupled with Lagrangian particl
e tracking of micron-sized droplets, is performed to investigate the role of secondary and tertiary expulsions on particle dispersion and penetration. Fully-developed turbulence obtained from DNS of a turbulent pipe flow is provided at the jet orifice. The volumetric flow rate at the orifice is modulated in time according to a damped sine wave; thereby allowing for control of the number of pulses, duration, and peak amplitude. The resulting vortex structures are analyzed for single-, two-, and three-pulse jets. The evolution of the particle cloud is then compared to existing single-pulse models. Particle dispersion and penetration of the entire cloud is found to be hindered by increased pulsatility. However, the penetration of particles emanating from a secondary or tertiary expulsion are enhanced due to acceleration downstream by vortex structures.
To study the dynamics of particles in turbulence when their sizes are comparable to the smallest eddies in the flow, the Kolmogorov length scale, efficient and accurate numerical models for the particle-fluid interaction are still missing. Therefore,
we here extend the treatment of the particle feedback on the fluid based on the volume-averaged fluid equations (VA simulation) in the previous study of the present authors, by estimating the fluid force correlated with the disturbed flow. We validate the model against interface-resolved simulations using the immersed-boundary method. Simulations of single particles show that the history effect is well captured by the present estimation method based on the disturbed flow. Similarly, the simulation of the flow around a rotating particle demonstrates that the lift force is also well captured by the proposed method. We also consider the interaction between non-negligible size particles and an array of Taylor-Green vortices. For density ratios $rho_d/rho_cgeq$ 10, the results show that the particle motion captured by the VA approach is closer to that of the fully-resolved simulations than that obtained with a traditional two-way coupling simulation. The flow disturbance is also well represented by the VA simulation. In particular, it is found that history effects enhance the curvature of the trajectory in vortices and this enhancement increases with the particle size. Furthermore, the flow field generated by a neighboring particle at distances of around ten particle diameters significantly influences particle trajectories. The computational cost of the VA simulation proposed here is considerably lower than that of the interface-resolved simulation.
