Abstract

This letter investigates the clustering of particles in isotropic turbulence sustained by linear and spectral forcing. The Stokes numbers range from 0.1 to 100. The time series of particles are analyzed with autocorrelation functions of the particle velocity and local fluid velocity. The spatial distributions of particles are analyzed with probability density functions of Voronoï volumes. These statistics show significant differences between the clustering of particles in linearly and spectrally forced turbulence.
