Short Wave Instability on Vortex Filaments
The short wave instability on corotating vortex filaments is investigated. It is shown that the short wave instability always occurs on corotating vortex filaments of fixed core structure. Moreover, when the interfilament distance is smaller than or comparable to the core size, vortex filaments produce short wave unstable modes which lead to wild stretching and folding; when vortex filaments ar...
متن کاملShort-wavelength instability and decay of a vortex pair in a stratified fluid
The evolution of a counter-rotating vortex pair in a stably stratified fluid is investigated using direct numerical simulations. The study focuses on the short-wavelength elliptic instability occurring in this flow and the subsequent decay of the vortices. Depending on the level of stratification, as characterized by the Froude number which indicates the time scale of buoyancy to that of the in...
متن کاملRadiation Instability in a Stratified Shear Flow
The paper deals with a new mechanism of instability in stratified fluid caused by internal wave radiation from a shear layer. This radiation instability may be explained in terms of the negativeenergy wave concept. These waves are able to grow due to radiation losses. The dispersion relation and non-linear stage of the process are analyzed through a model with tangential velocity discontinuity....
متن کاملWave speeds in wavy Taylor-vortex flow
The speed of travelling azimuthal waves on Taylor vortices in a circular Couette system (with the inner cylinder rotating and the outer cylinder at rest) has been determined in laboratory experiments conducted as a function of Reynolds number R, radius ratio of the cylinders 7, average axial wavelength h , number of waves m, and the aspect ratio r (the ratio of the fluid height to the gap betwe...
متن کاملInstability criterion for oblique modes in stratified circular Couette flow
An analytical approach is carried out that provides an inviscid stability criterion for the strato-rotational instability (in short SRI) occurring in a Taylor-Couette system. The control parameters of the problem are the rotation ratio μ and the radius ratio η. The study is motivated by recent experimental [1] and numerical [2, 3] results reporting the existence of unstable modes beyond the Ray...
