Layering instability in a confined suspension flow.
We show [J. Fluid Mech. 592, 447 (2007)] that swapping (reversing) trajectories in confined suspension flows prevent collisions between particles approaching each other in adjacent streamlines. Here we demonstrate that by inducing layering this hydrodynamic mechanism changes the microstructure of suspensions in a confined Couette flow. Layers occur either in the near-wall regions or span the wh...
متن کاملA Novel Indicator to Predict the Onset of Instability of a Gravitational Flow on a Slope
In order to present a quantitative indicator for the onset of instability, in this paper, the critical points of a stratified gravitational flow on a slope are found and analyzed. These points are obtained by means of the solution of the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations via the standard Arakawa-C finite-difference method. Results show that in the marginal Richardson numbers, the critical...
متن کاملSteady Flow and its Instability of Gravitational Granular Flow
Granular matter consists of a large number of macroscopic particles; the thermal noise has no effect on the particle motion and the interactions are dissipative. These features make the granular flow very different from molecular fluids. One of the simplest situations to see the complex behavior of granular flow is the gravitational granular flow on a slope. When the inclination angle is small ...
متن کاملNonlinear Instability in Gravitational
The dynamics of gaseous stars can be described by the EulerPoisson system. Inspired by Rein’s stability result for γ > 4 3 , we prove the nonlinear instability of steady states for the adiabatic exponent γ = 6 5 in spherically symmetric and isentropic motion.
متن کاملExperiments and simulations of a gravitational granular flow instability.
An instability is observed as a layer of dense granular material positioned above a layer of air falls in a gravitational field [Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 048001 (2007)]. A characteristic pattern of fingers emerges along the interface defined by the grains, and a transient coarsening of the structure is caused by a coalescence of neighboring fingers. The coarsening is limited by the production of ne...
