The Schmidt number, defined as the ratio of scalar to momentum diffusivity, varies by multiple orders of magnitude in real-world flows, with large differences in scalar diffusivity …
A fundamental study has been conducted to understand the front characteristics and the mixing in the flow of density currents over rough surfaces. A large-eddy simulation (LES) has …
Counterintuitively, fresh water attains a maximum density at a temperature above its freezing point. As a result, it exhibits a phenomenon known as weak cabbeling. If a system is in the …
A fundamental study has been conducted to understand the mean and turbulence characteristics and their role in mixing processes of starting turbulent plumes initiated by a …
Particle-laden gravity currents down a slope in stratified fluid are important processes in lake, estuary, and ocean environments. By conducting direct numerical simulations, this …
