Shape diagram of vesicles in Poiseuille flow.
Soft bodies flowing in a channel often exhibit parachutelike shapes usually attributed to an increase of hydrodynamic constraint (viscous stress and/or confinement). We show that the presence of a fluid membrane leads to the reverse phenomenon and build a phase diagram of shapes-which are classified as bullet, croissant, and parachute-in channels of varying aspect ratio. Unexpectedly, shapes ar...
متن کاملIntermittency in spiral Poiseuille flow
The results of an experimental study on intermittent spiral vortices observed in a counter-rotating Taylor-Couette system with an additional axial through flow, i.e. SpiralPoiseuille flow, are presented. Convectively unstable upstream propagating spiral vortices appear in the laminar basic flow from an oscillatory instability and in general become absolutely unstable at higher inner cylinder Re...
متن کاملPoiseuille flow of molecular fluids
We examine a generalised Navier-Stokes theory applicable to fluids composed of non-spherical molecules. We compare the theoretical predictions for flow velocity and viscosity with results obtained from nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD) simulations of a fluid undergoing gravity fed flow down a rectangular channel. We study two different fluids: one composed of spherical particles and the ...
متن کاملImperfect Hopf bifurcation in spiral Poiseuille flow.
We present the results of an experimental study on the transition to spiral vortices in flow between concentric counter-rotating cylinders in the presence of an axial through-flow, i.e., in spiral Poiseuille flow. The experiments were performed in an apparatus having an aspect ratio Gamma=L/d=22.8 ( L axial length, d gap width between cylinders) and end plates enabling an in and outflow of mass...
متن کاملA Numerical Study of Drop Motion in Poiseuille Flow
The cross-stream migration of a deformable drop in two-dimensional Poiseuille flow at finite Reynolds numbers is studied numerically. In the limit of a small Reynolds number (<1), the motion of the drop depends strongly on the ratio of the viscosity of the drop fluid to the viscosity of the suspending fluid. For a viscosity ratio 0.125, the drop moves toward the centre of the channe while for t...
