Hydrodynamic fingering instability of driven wetting films: hindrance by diffusion
Recent experimental and theoretical efforts have revealed the existence of a fingering instability at the moving front of thin liquid films forced to spread under gravitational, rotational or surface shear stresses, as for example by using the Marangoni effect. We describe how the presence of a precursor film in front of the spreading macroscopic film, whether it is by prewetting the substrate ...
متن کاملDiffusive fingering in a precipitation reaction driven by autocatalysis.
The interaction of an autocatalytic reaction with a fast precipitation reaction is shown to produce a permanent precipitate pattern where the major driving force is differential diffusion. The final structure emerges from the leading transient cellular front, the cusps of which evolve into precipitate free zones. The experimental observations are reproduced by a simple model calculation based o...
متن کاملCoupled capillary and gravity-driven instability in a liquid film overlying a porous layer.
In this work, we study the problem of onset of thermal convection in a fluid layer overlying a porous layer, the whole system being heated from below. We use Brinkman's model to describe the porous medium and determine the corresponding linear stability equations. The eigenvalue problem is solved by means of a modified Galerkin method. The behavior of the critical wave number and temperature gr...
متن کاملDiffusion-Driven Instability in Reaction Diffusion Systems
For a stable matrix A with real entries, sufficient and necessary conditions for A D to be stable for all non-negative diagonal matrices D are obtained. Implications of these conditions for the stability and instability of constant steadystate solutions to reaction diffusion systems are discussed and an example is given to show applications. 2001 Academic Press
متن کاملFingering Instability in a Water-Sand Mixture
The temporal evolution of a water-sand interface driven by gravity is experimentally investigated. By means of a Fourier analysis of the evolving interface the growth rates are determined for the different modes appearing in the developing front. To model the observed behavior we apply the idea of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability for two stratified fluids. Carrying out a linear stability analysi...
