Hydraulic jumps on an incline
Jean-Luc Thiffeault, Andrew Belmonte
When a fluid jet strikes an inclined solid surface at normal incidence, gravity creates a flow pattern with a thick outer rim resembling a parabola and reminiscent of a hydraulic j…
Non-coalescence of oppositely charged drops
W. D. Ristenpart, J. C. Bird, A. Belmonte +2
Oppositely charged drops have long been assumed to experience an attractive force that favors their coalescence. In this fluid dynamics video we demonstrate the existence of a crit…
Superheated water drops in hot oil
Enrique Soto, Roberto Zenit, Andrew Belmonte
Drops of water at room temperature were released in hot oil, which had a temperature higher than that of the boiling point of water. Initially, the drop temperature increases slowl…
Surface texture and pulsation due to balloon bursting in different liquids
Enrique Soto, Andrew Belmonte
We study the instabilities occurring during the burst of an air balloon in a liquid. These instabilities are typical for the deformation of an interface between two fluids of diffe…
Oscillatory Motion of Rising Bubbles in Wormlike Micellar Fluids with Different Microstructures
N. Z. Handzy, A. Belmonte
Previous observations of the nontransient oscillations of rising bubbles and falling spheres in wormlike micellar fluids were limited to a single surfactant system. We present an e…
Oscillations of a solid sphere falling through a wormlike micellar fluid
Anandhan Jayaraman, Andrew Belmonte
We present an experimental study of the motion of a solid sphere falling through a wormlike micellar fluid. While smaller or lighter spheres quickly reach a terminal velocity, larg…
