This study reveals that concentration distributions in scalar mixtures and spray drops share a common origin. Both phenomena stem from aggregation processes, resulting in a unique family of self-convolution stable distributions.

Area of Science:

  • Fluid dynamics
  • Statistical mechanics

Background:

  • Scalar mixture concentration distributions are complex.
  • Spray drop distributions are influenced by aggregation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the underlying mechanisms of concentration distributions in scalar mixtures and spray drops.
  • To identify commonalities in the formation of these distributions.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of concentration distribution data.
  • Application of statistical distribution theory.
  • Examination of self-convolution stable distributions.

Main Results:

  • Both scalar mixture and spray drop concentration distributions belong to a unique family of distributions.

  • This family is stable by self-convolution.
  • This stability is a signature of aggregation processes.

    • Conclusions:

    • Aggregation processes are fundamental to the formation of concentration distributions in both scalar mixtures and sprays.
    • A unified statistical framework can describe these seemingly disparate phenomena.
