Influence of Coherent Vortex Rolls on Particle Dynamics in Unstably Stratified Turbulent Channel Flows

This work investigates the dynamics of heavy particles dispersed in turbulent channel flows under unstable thermal stratification conditions using point-particle direct numerical simulations (PP-DNS), to quantify the influence of large-scale coherent vortex rolls, arising from the combined effects o...
