Effect of gravity on inertial particle clustering and the Lagrangian attractors in kinematic simulation with different energy spectra

We study the clustering of inertial particles using a periodic kinematic simulation. A pre-defined Fourier based Eulerian flow field is established. The systematic Lagrangian tracking of particlesmakes it possible to identify the particles’ clustering patterns for different values of particle inerti...
