Three dimensional branching pipe flows for optimal scalar transport between walls

Anuj Kumar

We consider the problem of "wall-to-wall optimal transport" in which we attempt to maximize the transport of a passive temperature field between hot and cold plates. Specifically,…

Optimal bounds in Taylor--Couette flow

Anuj Kumar

This paper is concerned with the optimal upper bound on mean quantities (torque, dissipation and the Nusselt number) obtained in the framework of the background method for the Tayl…

On local well-posedness of logarithmic inviscid regularizations of generalized SQG equations in borderline Sobolev spaces

Michael S. Jolly, Anuj Kumar, Vincent R. Martinez

This paper studies a family of generalized surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equations for an active scalar on the whole plane whose velocities have been mildly regularized, for…

On the existence, uniqueness, and smoothing of solutions to the generalized SQG equations in critical Sobolev spaces

Michael S. Jolly, Anuj Kumar, Vincent R. Martinez

This paper studies the dissipative generalized surface quasi-geostrophic equations in a supercritical regime where the order of the dissipation is small relative to order of the ve…

Pressure-driven flows in helical pipes: bounds on flow rate and friction factor

Anuj Kumar

In this paper, we use the well-known background method to obtain a rigorous lower bound on the volume flow rate through a helical pipe driven by a pressure differential in the limi…
