Fluid Mechanics Tour of the Alps : Bubble and Drop Breakup in Turbulence

Speaker: <a href="https://www.tuwien.at/en/mwbw/fluid/team/alfredo-soldati">Prof. Aldredo Soldati</a> Organiser: <a href="https://people.epfl.ch/francois.gallaire?lang=fr">Prof. François Gallaire</a> <strong>Abstract :</strong><br> Bubble and drop dynamics in turbulent flows are central to many environmental and industrial processes in which<br> interfacial transport of momentum, heat, and mass is controlled by multiscale interactions between turbulence and deformable<br> interfaces. Understanding the mechanisms governing deformation and breakup remains a major challenge in<br> multiphase flow physics. This lecture presents recent advances in the study of turbulent fragmentation using interfaceresolved<br> simulations, advanced optical diagnostics, and time-resolved three-dimensional
