Fluid stretching forms thin scalar lamellae that coalesce due to molecular diffusion. Owing to the linearity of the advection–diffusion equation, coalescence can be envisioned as an aggregation process. Here, we demonstrate that in smooth two-dimensional chaotic flows, mixing obeys a correlated aggregation process, where the spatial distribution of the number of lamellae in aggregates is highly correlated with their elongation, and is set by the fractal properties of the advected material lines. We show that the presence of correlations makes mixing less efficient than a completely random aggregation process because lamellae with similar elongations and scalar levels tend to remain isolated from each other. We show that correlated aggregation is uniquely determined by a single exponent that quantifies the effective number of random aggregation events. These findings expand aggregation theories to a larger class of systems, which have relevance to various fundamental and applied mixing problems.","PeriodicalId":15853,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluid Mechanics","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142207465","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

High-resolution simulations and the critical-point concept were scrutinized to reveal for the first time the reasonable and compatible topologies of flow separation and complete near-wall structures, due to their extensive impact on various engineering applications. Large-scale horseshoe vortices are observed at two notable foci in the viscous sublayer. Within this layer, a wall-parallel jet is formed by downflow intruding into the bottom surface at the half-saddle point, then deflecting in the upstream direction and finally penetrating the bottom surface until the half-saddle point. A pair of conical vortices on the cylinder's top surface switch themselves on two sides of the square cylinder, where the switching frequency is identical with that of the sway of the side shear layer. The undulation of the Kelvin–Helmholtz instability is identified in the instantaneous development of a conical vortex and side shear layer, where the scaling of the ratio of the Kelvin–Helmholtz and von Kármán frequencies follows the power-law relation obtained by Lander <jats:italic>et al.</jats:italic> (<jats:italic>J.

Large-scale arch-shaped vortex is often detected in the intermediate wake region of a square cylinder, involving two interconnected portions, such as the leg portion separated from leeward surfaces and head portion rolled up from the top surface. The leg portion of the arch-shaped vortex was rooted by two foci near the bottom-surface plane.","PeriodicalId":15853,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluid Mechanics","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142207463","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The most popular toy model for understanding the physics of such systems is the settling of a solid sphere in a viscoelastic fluid. There is general agreement that an elastic wake develops downstream of the sphere, causing the breakage of fore-and-aft symmetry, while the flow remains axisymmetric, independent of fluid viscoelasticity and flow conditions. Using a continuum mechanics model, we reveal that axisymmetry holds only for weak viscoelastic flows. Beyond a critical value of the settling velocity, steady, non-axisymmetric disturbances develop peripherally of the rear pole of the sphere, giving rise to a four-lobed fingering instability. The transition from axisymmetric to non-axisymmetric flow fields is characterized by a regular bifurcation and depends solely on the interplay between shear and extensional properties of the viscoelastic fluid under different flow regimes. At higher settling velocities, each lobe tip is split into two new lobes, resembling fractal fingering in interfacial flows. For the first time, we capture an elastic fingering instability under steady-state conditions, and provide the missing information for understanding and predicting such instabilities in the response of viscoelastic fluids and soft media.","PeriodicalId":15853,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluid Mechanics","volume":"61 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142226603","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This configuration is relevant to the jet-wiping process in hot-dip galvanization and it is unstable. Previous studies analysed the dynamics of the instability in the case of liquids with low Kapitza numbers (highly viscous liquids), more amenable to experimental and numerical investigations. This work extends the previous investigations by focusing on the wiping at much higher Kapitza numbers, which are more relevant to the galvanizing process. The simulations are carried out by combining volume of fluid and large-eddy simulations, and the dynamics of the gas–liquid interaction is analysed using extended multiscale proper orthogonal decomposition. The simulations allowed for analysing the jet-wiping instability in new flow conditions. Despite the largely different conditions, the results show that the interaction between the gas jet and the liquid film is qualitatively similar, featuring two-dimensional waves in the liquid correlated with oscillations and deflections of the gas jet in all cases. The wave characteristics (e.g. frequency and propagation speed) scale remarkably well using the Shkadov-like scaling based on the liquid, suggesting a dominant role of the liquid film in the coupling, and potentially enabling extrapolation of the results to a broader range of wiping conditions. Finally, we use the numerical results to discuss the limitations of liquid-film models, which constitute currently the only possible approach to study the jet-wiping process in industrial conditions.","PeriodicalId":15853,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluid Mechanics","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142207464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Notably, we place our focus on flat and thin films where the contact line is almost perpendicular to the cylinder wall whereas a small angle forms between the contact line and the substrate, and the film size is smaller than the cylinder radius. The film stability, which depends on the film size and the wall wettability, is first predicted by a standard linear stability analysis (LSA) within the long-wave theoretical framework. We find that the film size plays the most important role in controlling the film stability. Specifically, the thicker the film is, the less sensitive it becomes to the large-wavenumber perturbation. The wall wettability mainly impacts the growth rates of perturbations and slightly influences the marginal stability and postinstability patterns of wrapping films. We compare the LSA predictions with numerical results obtained from a disjoining pressure model (DPM) and volume-of-fluid (VOF) simulations, which provide more insights into the film breakup process. At the early stage there is a strong agreement between the LSA predictions and the DPM results. Notably, as the perturbation grows, thin film regions connecting two neighbouring satellite droplets form which may eventually lead to a stable or temporary secondary droplet, an aspect which the LSA is incapable of capturing. In addition, the VOF simulations suggest that beyond a critical film size, merging between two neighbouring drops becomes involved during the breakup stage. Therefore, the LSA predictions are able to provide only an upper limit on the final number of satellite droplets.","PeriodicalId":15853,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fluid Mechanics","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142207460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We show that the mean density gradient gives rise to a mechanism that opposes the production of fluctuating density gradients, and this is connected to the emergence of ramp cliffs.
