This project studies the behavior of small, non-spherical particles in turbulent fluids, focusing on how their shape and inertia affect mass transfer. By investigating these interactions, the research aims to enhance understanding of processes in fields like oceanography and chemical engineering.
When small, rigid particles are immersed in a turbulent fluid, they tumble, slip, concentrate and re-orientate themselves amidst a chaotic flow.
Simultaneously, material or heat (passive scalars) may be transferred from the surface by convection and diffusion.
Nature and engineering are replete with examples: planktonic osmotrophs absorb nutrients from turbulent ocean waters, and industrial processes grow crystals in agitated suspension, to name but two.
Such particles are rarely ever spherical.…
