When very small particles are suspended in a fluid in motion, they tend to follow the flow.
How such tracer particles are mixed, transported, and dispersed by turbulent flow has been …

▪ Abstract Predicting the motion of bubbles in dispersed flows is a key problem in fluid
mechanics that has a bearing on a wide range of applications from oceanography to …

Fluid turbulence is commonly associated with stronger drag, greater heat transfer, and more
efficient mixing than in laminar flows. In many natural and industrial settings, turbulent liquid …

In the study of fluid dynamics and transport phenomena, key quantities of interest are often
the force and torque on objects and total rate of heat/mass transfer from them …

The field of multiphase flows has grown by leaps and bounds in the last thirty years and is
now regarded as a major discipline. Engineering applications, products and processes with …

To understand and better model the hydrodynamic force acting on a finite-sized particle
moving in a wall-bounded linear shear flow, here we consider the two limiting cases of (a) a …

Modeling and simulation of atomization is challenging due to the existence of a wide range
of length scales. This multiscale nature of atomization introduces a fundamental challenge to …

Recent advances on the analytical form of the hydrodynamic force and heat/mass transfer
from a particle, bubble, or drop are examined critically. Also some of the recent …

The transverse migration of both clean and fully contaminated spherical bubbles rising near
a plane vertical wall in a quiescent viscous liquid is studied experimentally using an optical …

This book is an introduction to the physics of suspensions of bubbles, droplets, and solid
particles in both gases and fluids. Rather than treating each combination separately, a …
