Turbulence modulation in two-phase jets

Abstract A simple model is presented which can be used to predict the modifying effect of a dispersed-phase on the turbulence structure of two-phase jets. It is based on Kolmogorov's concept of spectral energy transfer and takes into account the additional energy dissipation resulting from the inability of dispersed-phase particles to completely follow turbulent eddy fluctuations. According to the analysis presented, high-frequency eddies are attenuated preferentially and a reduction of the total rate of turbulent energy dissipation results. Turbulence intensities were also reduced. Good agreement between predictions and experimental findings were obtained.
