Turbulent thermal diffusion in strongly stratified turbulence: Theory and experiments

Abstract: Turbulent thermal diffusion is a combined effect of the temperature stratified turbulence and inertia of small particles. It causes the appearance of a non-diffusive turbulent flux of particles in the direction of the turbulent heat flux. This non-diffusive turbulent flux of particles is proportional to the product of the mean particle number density and the effective velocity of inertial particles. The theory of this effect has been previously developed only for small temperature gradients and small Stokes nu… Show more

“…In such cases, the HIPs are found to accumulate in the vicinity of the minima of mean temperature. This large-scale clustering phenomenon, which can be described by turbulent thermal diffusion, was predicted in an analytical study [18,[48][49][50][51][52] and detected in laboratory experiments [53][54][55], DNS [56] and atmospheric observations [57].…”

“…Note that the rotation of the wheel in the present system can create the turbulence and in the turbulent medium the effective coefficient of turbulent thermal diffusion [34]can be obtained from the approximate method. Here, we use an alternative approximate method to obtain the the bulk diffusivity of Brownian particles driving by the rotating wheel.…”
