Linear and Secondary Instabilities in Incompressible Axisymmetric Boundary Layers: Effect of Transverse Curvature
N. Vinod, Rama Govindarajan
The incompressible boundary layer in the axial flow past a cylinder has been shown Tutty et. al.(\cite{tutty}) to be stabler than a two-dimensional boundary layer, with the helical…
Gravity-free hydraulic jumps and metal femtocups
Rama Govindarajan, Manikandan Mathur, Ratul DasGupta +3
Hydraulic jumps created by gravity are seen every day in the kitchen sink. We show that at small scales a circular hydraulic jump can be created in the absence of gravity, by surfa…
The critical Reynolds number of a laminar mixing layer
Pinaki Bhattacharya, M. P. Manoharan, Rama Govindarajan +1
It has hitherto been widely considered that a mixing layer is unstable at all Reynolds numbers. However this is untenable from energy considerations, which demand that there must e…
