High Temperature Aims and scope

Abstract

A diffusion-inertia model is suggested for the description of the transport of low-inertia particles of arbitrary density in turbulent flows. Comparison with experimental data is used to demonstrate the validity of the suggested model for the calculation of the motion of bubble in a vertical pipe under different conditions of the effect of the gravity force.
