Steady shape of a miscible bubble rising below an inclined wall at low Reynolds numbers
a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t When a buoyant volume of fluid impinges a horizontal boundary, it spreads symmetrically in the Stokes flow limit. We investigate the low Reynolds number spreading of a low-viscosity volume of fluid, hereafter called a " bubble " , in the limit that the fluids are miscible and interfacial tension can be neglected; the symmetry of the bubble's spreading is br...
متن کاملAxisymmetric bubble pinch-off at high Reynolds numbers.
Analytical considerations and potential-flow numerical simulations of the pinch-off of bubbles at high Reynolds numbers reveal that the bubble minimum radius, rn, decreases as tau proportional to r2n sqrt[1lnr2n], where tau is the time to break up, when the local shape of the bubble near the singularity is symmetric. However, if the gas convective terms in the momentum equation become of the or...

متن کاملMolecular Dynamics Simulations of Nanochannel Flows at Low Reynolds Numbers
In this paper we use molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to study nanochannel flows at low Reynolds numbers and present some new interesting results. We investigated a simple fluid flowing through channels of different shapes at the nano level. The Weeks-Chandler-Anderson potentials with different interaction strength factors are adopted for the interaction forces between fluid -fluid and fluid...
متن کاملFlexive and Propulsive Dynamics of Elastica at Low Reynolds Numbers
A stiff one-armed swimmer in glycerine goes nowhere, but if its arm is elastic, exerting a restorative torque proportional to local curvature, the swimmer can go on its way. Considering this happy consequence and the principles of elasticity, we study a hyperdiffusion equation for the shape of the elastica in viscous flow, find solutions for impulsive or oscillatory forcing, and elucidate relev...
