	  abstract     = {The dispersion of heavy particles line in an isotropic
and incompressible three-dimensional turbulent flow has been
studied using the Kinematic Simulation techniques to find out the
evolution of the line fractal dimension. In this study, the fractal
dimension of the line is found for different cases of heavy particles
inertia (different Stokes numbers) in the absence of the particle
gravity with a comparison with the fractal dimension obtained in the
diffusion case of material line at the same Reynolds number. It can
be concluded for the dispersion of heavy particles line in turbulent
flow that the particle inertia affect the fractal dimension of a line
released in a turbulent flow for Stokes numbers 0.02 < St < 2. At the
beginning for small times, most of the different cases are not affected
by the inertia until a certain time, the particle response time τa, with
larger time as the particles inertia increases, the fractal dimension of
the line increases owing to the particles becoming more sensitive to
the small scales which cause the change in the line shape during its
journey.},
