Small Atwood number Rayleigh-Taylor experiments.
Consideration is given to small Atwood number (non-dimensional density difference) experiments to investigate mixing driven by Rayleigh-Taylor (R-T) instability. The past 20 years have seen the development of novel experiments to investigate R-T mixing and, simultaneously, the advent of high-fidelity diagnostics. Indeed, the developments of experiments and diagnostics have gone hand in hand, an...
متن کاملNonideal Rayleigh-Taylor mixing.
Rayleigh-Taylor mixing is a classical hydrodynamic instability that occurs when a light fluid pushes against a heavy fluid. The two main sources of nonideal behavior in Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) mixing are regularizations (physical and numerical), which produce deviations from a pure Euler equation, scale invariant formulation, and nonideal (i.e., experimental) initial conditions. The Kolmogorov the...

متن کاملAnalytical model of nonlinear, single-mode, classical Rayleigh-Taylor instability at arbitrary Atwood numbers.
An analytical model of the nonlinear bubble evolution of single-mode, classical Rayleigh-Taylor instability at arbitrary Atwood numbers (A(T)) is presented. The model is based on an extension of Layzer's theory [Astrophys. J. 122, 1 (1955)] previously applied only to the fluid-vacuum interfaces (A(T) = 1). The model provides a continuous bubble evolution from the earlier exponential growth to t...
متن کاملOn validation of turbulent mixing simulations for Rayleigh-Taylor instability∗
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the validation achieved in recent simulations of Rayleigh-Taylor unstable mixing. The simulations are already in agreement with experiment; mesh refinement or insertion of a calibrated subgrid model for mass diffusion will serve to refine this validation and possibly shed light on the role of unobserved long wave length perturbations in the initial data. ...
