The colloquium will provide an opportunity for European scientists to present and discus new ideas, results and techniques in the field of two-phase particle-laden turbulent flows. Theoretical, experimental and computational studies of particulate flows are equally welcome. The presentations should focus on the physics of particle-turbulence interaction and turbulence modification, particle-wall and particle-particle interactions, particle coalescence and agglomeration, particle deposition, dispersion and clustering in dispersed turbulent flows.
Approaches may include Eulerian continuum and Lagrangian trajectory modelling methods, statistical kinetic PDF models, one-point and two-point turbulence closures, spectral analysis, direct and large-eddy simulations, LDA and PIV measurement techniques. Applications may range from industrial two-phase fluid dynamics to phenomena in a dusty atmosphere, clouds and liquids.
