| Title: | Introduction to Turbulence, with Bubbles Added |
| Seminar: | CCMA Luncheon Seminar |
| Speaker: | Andrew Belmonte, Department of Mathematics, Penn State |
| Abstract: |
| Turbulence is the complicated flow of a fluid characterized by
complicated time dynamics and complicated spatial structures
originating in inertial instabilities. In other words, it's
complicated! Most mathematical approaches are statistical,
although the governing equation is a deterministic partial
differential equation (Navier-Stokes). There is a growing list
of fluid flows that share properties of turbulence without
being inertial, such as Lagrangian mixing and elastic turbulence.
I will add another case, resulting from many bubbles rising in
a fluid - sometimes known as bubbly turbulence. |
