Highly focused supersonic microjets
Yoshiyuki Tagawa, Nikolai Oudalov, Claas Willem Visser +5
The paper describes the production of thin, focused microjets with velocities up to 850 m/s by the rapid vaporization of a small mass of liquid in an open liquid-filled capillary.…
Spatial distribution of heat flux and fluctuations in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection
Rajaram Lakkaraju, Richard. J. A. M. Stevens, Roberto Verzicco +4
We numerically investigate the radial dependence of the velocity and temperature fluctuations and of the time-averaged heat flux in a cylindrical Rayleigh-Bénard cell…
Drop impact on superheated surfaces
Tuan Tran, Hendrik J. J. Staat, Andrea Prosperetti +2
At impact of a liquid droplet on a smooth surface heated above the liquid's boiling point, the droplet either immediately boils when it contacts the surfaces (``contact boiling''),…
Optimal Taylor-Couette turbulence
Dennis P. M. van Gils, Sander G. Huisman, Siegfried Grossmann +2
Strongly turbulent Taylor-Couette flow with independently rotating inner and outer cylinders with a radius ratio of η= 0.716 is experimentally studied. From global torque measureme…
Ultimate Turbulent Taylor-Couette Flow
Sander G. Huisman, Dennis P. M. van Gils, Siegfried Grossmann +2
The flow structure of strongly turbulent Taylor-Couette flow with Reynolds numbers up to Re_i = 2*10^6 of the inner cylinder is experimentally examined with high-speed particle ima…
Flow reversals in thermally driven turbulence
Kazuyasu Sugiyama, Rui Ni, Richard J. A. M. Stevens +7
We analyze the reversals of the large scale flow in Rayleigh-Bénard convection both through particle image velocimetry flow visualization and direct numerical simulations (DNS) of…
