Turbulence is ineffective in causing raindrop growth in polluted clouds

K. Shri Vignesh, Ambedkar Sanket Sukdeo, P. V. Sruthibhai +8

Aerosol-cloud interactions represent the largest uncertainty in climate-change assessment, and while cloud turbulence is considered crucial for droplet growth, its precise role rem…

Streak generation in viscosity-stratified wall-bounded flows

Anagha Madhusudanan, Simon J. Illingworth, Rama Govindarajan

Streamwise elongated flow structures, or streaks, dominate wall-bounded flows. We show that the renowned lift-up mechanism, that generates streaks, is significantly altered by visc…

Sedimentation and shear-induced dynamics of spheroids in fluids with spatial viscosity variations

Arjun Sharma, Peter A. Bosler, Rama Govindarajan +1

A generalized reciprocal theorem is used to relate the force and torque induced on a particle in an inertia-less fluid with small variation in viscosity to integrals involving Stok…

Emergence of capillary waves in miscible co-flowing fluids

Alessandro Carbonaro, Giovanni Savorana, Luca Cipelletti +2

We show that capillary waves can exist at the the boundary between miscible co-flowing fluids. We unveil that the interplay between transient interfacial stresses and confinement d…

Mechanism of instability in non-uniform dusty channel flow

Anup Kumar, Rama Govindarajan

Particles in pressure-driven channel flow are often inhomogeneously distributed. Two modes of low-Reynolds number instability, absent in Poiseuille flow of clean fluid, are created…
