Effect of the weight of the admixture on the turbulence structure of a two-phase jet

The effect of gravity on the turbulence structure of an inclined two-phase jet is evaluated according to the Prandtl theory of mixing length.Notation C_x drag coefficient for a particle - D_p particle diameter - g_i components of the acceleration g due to gravity acting on a particle in the direction of jet flow (g_i=g sin ) and in the direction normal to it (g_i=g cos ) - V_poi ^±, V_goi ^± fluctuation components of the velocities of the particles and gas, respectively, at the end of a mole formation - V_fi free-fall velocity of a particle - l _u mixing length - m_p particle mass - t _p length of time of particle-mole interaction - V_pi ^±, V_gi ^± positive and negative fluctuation velocities of particles and of the gas respectively, with the components u_p ^±, u_g ^±, v_p ^±, v_g ^±, k=V_goi/V_fi - V_i ^± relative velocity of the gas - jet inclination angle relative to the earth's surface - empirical constant - _u, jet boundaries in terms of velocity and concentration - _u=y/ _u dimensionless velocity ordinate - =y/ dimensionless concentration ordinate - admixture concentration - u_m, _m velocity and the concentration of the admixture at the jet axis - _g dynamic viscosity of the gas - _s, _g densities of the particle material and of the gas - _g, _p shearing stresses in the gas and in the gas of particles - _m, ₀ shearing stresses in the mixture and in pure gas, respectively Translated from Inzhenerno-Fizicheskii Zhurnal, Vol. 40, No. 3, pp. 422–426, March, 1981.
