Particle transfer in the wall region of turbulent boundary layers is dominated by the coherent
structures which control the turbulence regeneration cycle. Coherent structures bring …

We study the two main phenomenologies associated with the transport of inertial particles in
turbulent flows, turbophoresis and small-scale clustering. Turbophoresis describes the …

Transfer and deposition of inertial particles or droplets in turbulent pipe flow are crucial
processes in a number of industrial and environmental applications. In this work, we use …

Particle dispersion and deposition in the region near the wall of a turbulent open channel is
studied using direct numerical simulation of the flow, combined with Lagrangian particle …

We explored the possibility of improving the viability of Akkermansia muciniphila by
encapsulating it in succinate-grafted alginate doped with epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) …

The particle slip velocity is adopted as an indicator of the behavior of heavy particles in
turbulent channel flow. The statistical moments of the slip velocity are evaluated considering …

Turbulent dispersed flows in boundary layers are crucial in a number of industrial and
environmental applications. In most applications, the key information is space distribution of …

The relative amounts of wall deposition between skim milk and maltodextrin have been
compared in a pilot-scale spray dryer of 1.5 m height, equipped with a two-fluid atomizer …

Agglomeration in multi-stage spray dryers for food powder production is typically
implemented by recycling fine material into the spray cone. The improved flow and …

The objective of the paper is to present a statistical approach to modelling dispersion and
preferential concentration of inertial particles suspended in the turbulent fluid. This approach …
