Sedimentation in particle-laden flows with and without velocity shear

The vertical transport of sediment from particle-laden flows in marine settings can be enhanced by a settling-driven convective instability. The presence of a horizontal velocity shear can further influence this vertical transport. We conduct numerical simulations to investigate the vertical sedimen...

description The vertical transport of sediment from particle-laden flows in marine settings can be enhanced by a settling-driven convective instability. The presence of a horizontal velocity shear can further influence this vertical transport. We conduct numerical simulations to investigate the vertical sediment transport in the presence and absence of shear. We show how this transport is determined by a competition between the growth of the settling-driven convective instability (Rayleigh–Taylor) and the stratified shear instability (Kelvin–Helmholtz). In the absence of shear, the Rayleigh–Taylor instability drives enhanced vertical sediment transport; this effect increases with the Stokes settling velocity of the particles and decreases with the stratification strength. In the presence of shear, there are two regimes of effective settling. When the Kelvin–Helmholtz instability grows rapidly and suppresses the Rayleigh–Taylor instability, the effective settling velocity is significantly reduced. On the other hand, if the Rayleigh–Taylor instability dominates and completely inhibits the Kelvin–Helmholtz instability, the effective settling velocity is enhanced due to the additional energy input by shear. We explore the parameter space of these regimes and interpret their physics.
