Hydrodynamic instabilities in miscible fluids

D Truzzolillo, L Cipelletti - Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
Hydrodynamic instabilities in miscible fluids are ubiquitous, from natural phenomena up to
geological scales, to industrial and technological applications, where they represent the only …

[HTML][HTML] Sloshing mitigation in microgravity with moving baffles

D Gligor, C Peromingo, PS Sánchez, J Porter… - Acta Astronautica, 2024 - Elsevier
We numerically investigate the effect on sloshing in microgravity of systems with passive,
moving baffles whose motion is restricted by linear springs. The liquid is assumed to have …

Interfacial phenomena in immiscible liquids subjected to vibrations in microgravity

PS Sánchez, V Yasnou, Y Gaponenko… - Journal of Fluid …, 2019 - cambridge.org
We consider the response to periodic forcing between 5 Hz and 50 Hz of an interface
separating immiscible fluids under the microgravity conditions of a parabolic flight. Two pairs …

Dynamics of the interface between miscible liquids subjected to horizontal vibration

YA Gaponenko, M Torregrosa, V Yasnou… - Journal of Fluid …, 2015 - cambridge.org
We present experimental evidence of the existence of an interfacial instability between two
miscible liquids of similar (but non-identical) viscosities and densities under horizontal …

Two-scale wave patterns on a periodically excited miscible liquid–liquid interface

V Shevtsova, YA Gaponenko, V Yasnou… - Journal of Fluid …, 2016 - cambridge.org
We have discovered a peculiar behaviour of the interface between two miscible liquids
placed in a finite-size container under horizontal vibration. We provide evidence that …

Linear stability of confined coaxial jets in the presence of gas velocity oscillations with heat and mass transfer

B Jia, L ** at the interface of two immiscible fluids under
vibration parallel to interface are observed under zero-gravity conditions. Fluids are slightly …

Frozen-wave instability in near-critical hydrogen subjected to horizontal vibration under various gravity fields

G Gandikota, D Chatain, S Amiroudine, T Lyubimova… - Physical Review E, 2014 - APS
The frozen-wave instability which appears at a liquid-vapor interface when a harmonic
vibration is applied in a direction tangential to it has been less studied until now. The present …

Dynamic stabilization of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability of miscible liquids and the related “frozen waves”

GGH Wolf - Physics of Fluids, 2018 - pubs.aip.org
Superimposed miscible liquids, the heavier one on top, when subjected to vibrations vertical
to their interface (dynamic stabilization), can only be maintained for a certain period. A …
