  1. Particles in Turbulence Preliminary results from Lagrangian Acoustic Velocimetry M. Bourgoin, P. N. Qureshi, A. Cartellier, Y. Gagne, C. Baudet,

  2. Inertial particles in turbulence • effect of particles finite size ? • effect of particle to fluid density ratio ? • effect of particles concentration (collective effects) ? Preferential concentration - Clustering Enhancement of settling velocity Dispersion … Lagrangian measurements : to characterize particles dynamics at large and small scales

  3. Outline • Acoustic velocimetry technique • principle of Acoustic Doppler velocimetry • data acquisition and processing • « Inertial » particles dynamics (preliminary) • wind tunnel measurements • finite size effects on velocity increments statitics

  4. Acoustic velocimetry principle Ultrasonic Emitter , Receiver Scattering vector : Doppler shift :

  5. Acoustic velocimetry principle L ~ 50 cm Ultrasonic Emitter ~ Ø 10 cm , ~ 100 kHz ~ 160o Receiver Scattering vector : Doppler shift :

  6. 3D Acoustic velocimetry • 4 independent projections • Better SNR • Well adapted for measurements • in open flows with a (large) mean • velocity • Possibility for simultaneous • Eulerian measurements (hot wire)

  7. Particles : Gas filled soap bubbles Inner gas Using Hellium as inner gas, we can compensate the weight of soap Air Neutrally buoyant particles Soap Air flow D ~ 2 - 6 mm (Disp. < 6 %) Air flow • Adjustable parameters : • soap, gas and air flow rates • inner gas type Bubbles density, size and production rate adjustable Stokes number effects : Lagrangian tracers  inertial particles

  15. Conclusions • Acoustic Lagrangian Velocimetry technique (3D) • Well suited for individual particle tracking in open flows • Possibility of silmultaneous Eulerian measurements • Tracking of soap bubbles inflated with gas - density and size easily adjustable • Size effects on large neutrally buoyant isolated particles (preliminary) - Intermittency - weaker than for fluid tracers - Smaller bubbles have larger acceleration variance • Surprisingly, we find a larger acceleration flatness for the • larger bubbles • Perspectives • repeat the measurements for other sizes of bubbles • heavy particles dynamics • Clustering-Collective effects (many particles)
