Instabilities in buoyant flows under localized heating.
We study, from the numerical point of view, instabilities developed in a fluid layer with a free surface in a cylindrical container which is nonhomogeneously heated from below. In particular, we consider the case in which the applied heat is localized around the origin. An axisymmetric basic state appears as soon as a nonzero horizontal temperature gradient is imposed. The basic state may bifur...
متن کاملShelf Impact on Buoyant Coastal Current Instabilities
The impact of shelf slope on the linear stability of buoyant coastal currents and on the nonlinear formation of coastal meanders and eddies is investigated. The authors consider a simplified two-layer stratification in cylindrical geometry where a buoyant surface current flows along the coast above a denser water, with a flat bottom or steep shelves. Simulations were performed using the Nucleus...
متن کاملTravel Instabilities in lateral heating
We study the convective motion forced by lateral heating on a liquid layer. The movement is caused by two forces: buoyancy and thermocapillarity on the free surface, which is open to the air. As soon as a temperature gradient is imposed along the liquid layer, the fluid begins to move. When a certain threshold of the temperature difference is attained, this flow destabilizes and oscillations ap...
متن کاملInstabilities in Granular Flows
The flow and handling of granular materials is of major importance to many industries. Yet despite efforts over several decades, the modeling of such flows has achieved only modest success. Dense gravity-driven flows in hoppers have been often modeled as elastic-plastic continua, for example. In this picture, the granular material flows as a plastic with a frictional yield condition, and deform...
متن کاملInstabilities in the dynamics of neutrally buoyant particles
The asymptotic dynamics of finite-size particles is governed by a slow manifold that is globally attracting for sufficiently small Stokes numbers. For neutrally buoyant particles suspensions , the slow dynamics coincide with that of infinitesimally small particles, therefore the suspension dynamics should synchronize with Lagrangian particle motions. Paradoxically, recent studies observe a scat...
