Bubble dynamics in turbulent duct flows: lattice-boltzmann simulations and drop tower experiments

Lattice-Boltzmann simulations of a turbulent duct flow have been carried out to obtain trajectories of passive tracers in the conditions of a series of microgravity experiments of turbulent bubble suspensions. The statistics of these passive tracers are compared to the corresponding measurements for...
