Quantum turbulence in a propagating superfluid vortex front.
We present experimental, numerical, and theoretical studies of a vortex front propagating into a region of vortex-free flow of rotating superfluid 3He-B. We show that the nature of the front changes from laminar through quasiclassical turbulent to quantum turbulent with decreasing temperature. Our experiment provides the first direct measurement of the dissipation rate in turbulent vortex dynam...
متن کاملConvective effects on a propagating reaction front
Unstable concentration gradients inherent in traveling chemical waves can give rise to buoyancy-driven convection, altering the speed of the wave. When an excitable Belousov– Zhabotinsky reaction system is confined within a sufficiently narrow, vertical two-dimensional channel, convection arises at a symmetry-breaking bifurcation point. The observed linear rate of change of wave speed with the ...
متن کاملBubble behavior in a Taylor vortex.
We present a study on the behavior of air bubbles captured in a Taylor vortex formed in the annulus between two concentric cylinders. It is found that small bubbles stay either at certain locations near the vortex cores or in the outflow regions along the inner cylinder. If bubbles of the same size are introduced, a variety of bubble structures (such as ring, chain, cluster, etc.) appear due to...
متن کاملVortex simulations of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability
~ vortex t~chnique capable of calculating the Rayleigh-Taylor instability to large amplitudes in inviscid, mcompresstble, layered flows is introduced. The results show the formation of a steady-state bubble at large times, whose velocity is in agreement with the theory of BirkhotT and Carter. It is shown that the spike acceleration can exceed free fall, as suggested recently by MenikotT and Zem...
متن کاملPropagating front in an excited granular layer.
A partial monolayer of approximately 20 000 uniform spherical steel beads, vibrated vertically on a flat plate, shows remarkable ordering transitions and cooperative behavior just below 1g maximum acceleration. We study the stability of a quiescent disordered or "amorphous" state formed when the acceleration is switched off in the excited "gaseous" state. The transition from the amorphous state...
