A linear stability analysis of large-Prandtl-number thermocapillary liquid bridges
A linear stability analysis is applied to determine the onset of oscillatory thermocapillary convection in cylindrical liquid bridges of large Prandtl numbers (4 6 Pr 6 50). We focus on the relationships between the critical Reynolds number Rec, the azimuthal wave number m, the aspect ratio Γ and the Prandtl number Pr. A detailed Rec-Pr stability diagram is given for liquid bridges with various...
متن کاملBifurcation analysis of the thermocapillary convection in cylindrical liquid bridges
We consider the instability of the steady, axisymmetric thermocapillary convection in cylindrical liquid bridges. Finite-difference method is applied to compute the steady axisymmetric basic solutions, and to examine their linear instability to three-dimensional modal perturbations. The numerical results show that for liquid bridges of O(1) aspect ratio Γ (=length/radius) the first instability ...
متن کاملStability analysis of stratified two-phase liquid-gas flow in a horizontal pipe
This study aimed at linear stability analysis of the stratified two-phase liquid-gas flow in a horizontal pipe. First, equations governing the linear stability of flow in each phase and boundary conditions were obtained. The governing equations were eigenvalue Orr Sommerfeld equations which are difficult and stiff problems to solve. After obtaining the velocity profiles of the gas and liquid ph...
متن کاملUnderstanding Particle Accumulation Structures (PAS) in Thermocapillary Liquid Bridges
Particle accumulation structures (PAS) in liquid bridges are considered in a didactic approach. After reviewing the experimental results on PAS we explain PAS as a limit cycle of the particle motion in the frame of reference co-rotating with the hydrothermal wave. The limit cycles representing PAS are created by perturbations of the motion of perfect tracer particles. Therefore, the topology of...
متن کاملA Continuation Method Applied to the Study of Thermocapillary Instabilities in Liquid Bridges
A continuation method is applied to investigate the linear stability of the steady, axisymmetric thermocapillary flows in liquid bridges. The method is based upon an appropriate extended system of perturbation equations depending on the nature of transition of the basic flow. The dependence of the critical Reynolds number and corresponding azimuthal wavenumber on serval parameters is presented ...
