Linear instability in thermally-stratified quasi-Keplerian flows

Dongdong Wan, Rikhi Bose, Mengqi Zhang +1

Quasi-Keplerian flow, a special regime of Taylor-Couette co-rotating flow, is of great astrophysical interest for studying angular momentum transport in accretion disks. The well-k…

Effects of radius ratio on annular centrifugal Rayleigh-Bénard convection

Dongpu Wang, Hechuan Jiang, Shuang Liu +2

We report on a three-dimensional direct numerical simulation study of flow structure and heat transport in the annular centrifugal Rayleigh-Bénard convection (ACRBC) system, with c…

Closing the loop: nonlinear Taylor vortex flow through the lens of resolvent analysis

Benedikt Barthel, Xiaojue Zhu, Beverley J. McKeon

We present an optimization-based method to efficiently calculate accurate nonlinear models of Taylor vortex flow. We use the resolvent formulation of McKeon & Sharma (2010) to mode…

From Rayleigh-Bénard convection to porous-media convection: how porosity affects heat transfer and flow structure

Shuang Liu, Linfeng Jiang, Kai Leong Chong +6

We perform a numerical study of the heat transfer and flow structure of Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convection in (in most cases regular) porous media, which are comprised of circular, so…

Diffusive interaction of multiple surface nanobubbles and nanodroplets: shrinkage, growth, and coarsening

Xiaojue Zhu, Roberto Verzicco, Xuehua Zhang +1

Surface nanobubbles are nanoscopic spherical-cap shaped gaseous domains on immersed substrates which are stable, even for days. After the stability of a {\it single} surface nanobu…
