On the Stability of Stratified Flows with a Horizontal Shear
Howard’s semi-circle theorem [4] states that the complex wavespeed for an unstable mode must fall within the range of values of the base flow, a conclusion that has proven to be of fundamental importance for a wide variety of flow phenomena. Howard’s original proof applies to a two-dimensional basic state, u(z), where z is the vertical distance and u is the horizontal velocity, with two dimensi...
متن کاملStability analysis of stratified two-phase liquid-gas flow in a horizontal pipe
This study aimed at linear stability analysis of the stratified two-phase liquid-gas flow in a horizontal pipe. First, equations governing the linear stability of flow in each phase and boundary conditions were obtained. The governing equations were eigenvalue Orr Sommerfeld equations which are difficult and stiff problems to solve. After obtaining the velocity profiles of the gas and liquid ph...
متن کاملStability of Uniform Shear Flow
The stability of idealized shear flow at long wavelengths is studied in detail. A hydrodynamic analysis at the level of the Navier-Stokes equation for small shear rates is given to identify the origin and universality of an instability at any finite shear rate for sufficiently long wavelength perturbations. The
متن کاملEvolution of a stratified rotating shear layer with horizontal shear. Part I. Linear stability
Linear stability analysis is used to investigate instability mechanisms for a horizontally oriented hyperbolic tangent mixing layer with uniform stable stratification and coordinate system rotation about the vertical axis. The important parameters governing inviscid dynamics are maximum shear S, buoyancy frequency N, angular velocity of rotation Ω and characteristic shear thickness L. Growth ra...
متن کاملStability of nanofluids in quiescent and shear flow fields
An experimental study was conducted to investigate the structural stability of ethylene glycol-based titanium dioxide nanoparticle suspensions (nanofluids) prepared by two-step method. The effects of particle concentration, fluid temperature, shear rate and shear duration were examined. Particle size and thermal conductivity measurements in quiescent state indicated the existence of aggregates ...
