Radiation Instability in a Stratified Shear Flow
The paper deals with a new mechanism of instability in stratified fluid caused by internal wave radiation from a shear layer. This radiation instability may be explained in terms of the negativeenergy wave concept. These waves are able to grow due to radiation losses. The dispersion relation and non-linear stage of the process are analyzed through a model with tangential velocity discontinuity....
متن کاملInstability criterion for oblique modes in stratified circular Couette flow
An analytical approach is carried out that provides an inviscid stability criterion for the strato-rotational instability (in short SRI) occurring in a Taylor-Couette system. The control parameters of the problem are the rotation ratio μ and the radius ratio η. The study is motivated by recent experimental [1] and numerical [2, 3] results reporting the existence of unstable modes beyond the Ray...
متن کاملInstability Associated Baroclinic Critical Layers in Rotating Stratified Shear Flow
The notion of over-reflection has been used to rationalize the linear instability of shear flows that are directed and sheared in a horizontal plane but stratified and subject to rotation in the vertical. In the linear stability analysis of these types of flows, two types of critical levels may appear that translate to singular points in the corresponding differential eigenvalue problem. The fi...
متن کاملSecondary Kelvin–Helmholtz instability in weakly stratified shear flow
The growth of secondary vortices on the braids separating Kelvin–Helmholtz billows is investigated via numerical simulations. The similarity theory of Corcos & Sherman (1976) is extended to include mixing processes with Prandtl number greater than unity, and is shown to provide a useful description of the physics of the braid regions just prior to the onset of secondary instability. The numeric...
متن کاملShear banding and interfacial instability in planar Poiseuille flow
Motivated by the need for a theoretical study in a planar geometry that can easily be implemented experimentally, we study the pressure driven Poiseuille flow of a shear banding fluid. After discussing the “basic states” predicted by a one dimensional calculation that assumes a flat interface between the bands, we proceed to demonstrate such an interface to be unstable with respect to the growt...
