On 2D Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities
1 Introduction Consider in the plane the flow of two ideal incompressible fluids of constant densities ρ ± > 0 in the gravity field, with ρ + = ρ −. Velocity field satisfies the Euler equation ∂ρu ∂t + u · ∇ρu = −∇p + ρg (1) div u = 0 (2) ρ t + div (ρu) = 0 (3) with initial data u(x, 0) = u 0 (x). (4) We suppose, that u 0 (x) satisfies the continuity equation (2), and the assumption that vortic...
متن کاملEffects of Magnetic Field, Sheared Flow and Ablative Velocity on the Rayleigh - Taylor Instability
It is found that magnetic field has a stabilization effect whereas the sheared flow has a destabilization effect on the RT instability in the presence of sharp interface. RT instability only occurs in the long wave region and can be completely suppressed if the stabilizing effect of magnetic field dominates. The RT instability increases with wave number and flow shear, and acts much like a Kelv...
متن کاملScaling Laws of Nonlinear Rayleigh – Taylor and Richtmyer – Meshkov Instabilities ∗
The nonlinear Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) and Richtmyer-Meshkov (RM) instability are investigated by theoretical models based on singlemode and two-bubble physics at all Atwood numbers (A). A potential-flow treatment of single-mode perturbations shows that the late-time RM single mode velocity decreases as v ∼ λ/t, as well as quantifying a two-bubble overtake interaction (“merger”) analogous to that f...
متن کاملMixing Generated by Rayleigh-taylor and Richtmyer-meshkov Instabilities
We apply the Canuto-Goldman (CG) analytical model to turbulence generated by the class of instabilities which have a power-law growth rate. For the case of Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) instability we compare the results of the model with the experiments of Read and Youngs and find reasonable agreement on the scale size of large eddies: they are predicted to be a0% of the mixing length and are at least ...
متن کاملRayleigh-Taylor instabilities in thin films of tapped powder.
We observe powder "droplets" forming when tapping repeatedly a horizontal flat plate initially covered with a monolayer of fine powder particles. Starting from a simple model involving both the air flow through the porous cake and avalanche properties, we set up an analytical model which satisfactorily fits the experimental results. We observe a close analogy between the governing equations of ...
