A new instability driven by the combined effect of wind stress and rotation in a sheared liquid layer
S. Preethi, Ankush Kamboj, Ramkarn Patne +2
We examine the linear stability of a shear flow driven by wind stress at the free surface and rotation at the lower boundary, mimicking oceanic flows influenced by surface winds an…
Evaporation Dynamics of Completely Pinned and Partially Pinned Sessile Droplets in Multi-Droplet Configurations
A. Hari Govindha, Sayak Banerjee, Saravanan Balusamy +1
The evaporation of sessile droplets placed in close proximity is influenced by complex vapor-vapor interactions, producing a shielding effect that can significantly extend droplet…
Evaporation of sessile drops on a heated superhydrophobic substrate
Sivanandan Kavuri, Chander Shekhar Sharma, George Karapetsas +1
We experimentally investigate the evaporation dynamics of sessile water droplets on a micro-nano textured superhydrophobic aluminum substrate at various temperatures using shadowgr…
Exacerbation of viscoelastic instability due to viscous heating
Ankush Kamboj, Ramkarn Patne, P. A. L. Narayana +1
The linear stability analysis of the pressure-driven flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid through a plane channel is performed to examine the effects of viscous heating-induced buoyancy on t…
Jet breakup dynamics of viscoelastic carboxymethyl cellulose solutions
Ketan Vinayak Warghat, Yogesh Biswal, Sukesh Sharma +3
We experimentally investigate the breakup dynamics of viscoelastic jets composed of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) solutions, focusing on the dripping and Rayleigh regimes at low fl…
Droplet breakup morphologies and the resultant size distribution in an opposed-flow airstream at different Weber numbers
Shubham Chakraborty, Someshwar Sanjay Ade, Lakshmana Dora Chandrala +1
The present study investigates the morphology and breakup dynamics of a freely falling drop in a vertical airstream using shadowgraphy and in-line holography. The in-line holograph…
