Shape diagram of vesicles in Poiseuille flow.
Soft bodies flowing in a channel often exhibit parachutelike shapes usually attributed to an increase of hydrodynamic constraint (viscous stress and/or confinement). We show that the presence of a fluid membrane leads to the reverse phenomenon and build a phase diagram of shapes-which are classified as bullet, croissant, and parachute-in channels of varying aspect ratio. Unexpectedly, shapes ar...
متن کاملLateral Migration and Rotational Motion of Elliptic Particles in Planar Poiseuille Flow
Simulations of elliptic particulate suspensions in the planar Poiseuille ow are performed by using the lattice Boltzmann equation. E ects of the multi-particle interaction on the lateral migration and rotational motion of both neutrally and non-neutrally buoyant elliptic particles are investigated. Low and intermediate total particle volume fraction fa = 13%, 25%, and 40% are considered in this...
متن کاملDynamics of vesicles in a wall-bounded shear flow.
We report a detailed study of the behavior (shapes, experienced forces, velocities) of giant lipid vesicles subjected to a shear flow close to a wall. Vesicle buoyancy, size, and reduced volume were separately varied. We show that vesicles are deformed by the flow and exhibit a tank-treading motion with steady orientation. Their shapes are characterized by two nondimensional parameters: the red...
متن کاملA Numerical Study of Drop Motion in Poiseuille Flow
The cross-stream migration of a deformable drop in two-dimensional Poiseuille flow at finite Reynolds numbers is studied numerically. In the limit of a small Reynolds number (<1), the motion of the drop depends strongly on the ratio of the viscosity of the drop fluid to the viscosity of the suspending fluid. For a viscosity ratio 0.125, the drop moves toward the centre of the channe while for t...
متن کاملIntermittency in spiral Poiseuille flow
The results of an experimental study on intermittent spiral vortices observed in a counter-rotating Taylor-Couette system with an additional axial through flow, i.e. SpiralPoiseuille flow, are presented. Convectively unstable upstream propagating spiral vortices appear in the laminar basic flow from an oscillatory instability and in general become absolutely unstable at higher inner cylinder Re...
