Generalized Knudsen Number for Unsteady Fluid Flow
Vural Kara, Victor Yakhot, Kamil L. Ekinci
We explore the scaling behavior of an unsteady flow that is generated by an oscillating body of finite size in a gas. If the gas is gradually rarefied, the Navier-Stokes equations…
Porous Superhydrophobic Membranes: Hydrodynamic Anomaly in Oscillating Flows
Sukumar Rajauria, O. Ozsun, J. Lawall +2
We have fabricated and characterized a novel superhydrophobic system, a mesh-like porous superhydrophobic membrane with solid area fraction , which can maintain intimate conta…
A Universality in Oscillating Flows
K. L. Ekinci, D. M. Karabacak, V. Yakhot
We show that oscillating flow of a simple fluid in both the Newtonian and the non-Newtonian regime can be described by a universal function of a single dimensionless scaling parame…
Towards a dynamical theory of multifractals in turbulence
Victor Yakhot, K. R. Sreenivasan
Making use of the exact equations for structure functions, supplemented by the equations for dissipa tive anomaly as well as an estimate for the Lagrangian acceleration of fluid pa…
Kolmogorov turbulence in a random-force-driven Burgers equation
Alexei Chekhlov, Victor Yakhot
The dynamics of velocity fluctuations, governed by the one-dimensional Burgers equation, driven by a white-in-time random force with the spatial spectrum $\overline{|f(k)|^2}\propt…
