The same situation in the case of a Reynolds number larger than ten has been clarified years ago. The maximum diameter of the spread drop is well described by a 1/5 power law of the Reynolds number only. Here the deformation of the drop, defined as the contact diameter rescaled by the drop size, is also a power law of the Reynolds number. From experimental data and scaling arguments, the exponent of the power law is shown to be 1/3.","PeriodicalId":20160,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review Fluids","volume":"36 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141873093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The question naturally arises as to how closely particle-particle correlations achieved with this classical system can mimic those arising on the quantum scale. We here introduce a new platform for addressing this question, a numerical model of cooperative tunneling in a bipartite pilot-wave hydrodynamic system. We execute a static Bell test, in which the system geometry is fixed and the two subsystems are coupled through the intervening wave field. This wave-mediated coupling is not congruent with the assumptions made in deriving Bell's inequality, and so allows one to rationalize the reported violations. Nevertheless, these violations are elusive, and arise only in a limited corner of parameter space.","PeriodicalId":20160,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review Fluids","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141869115","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Thermocapillary instability of a surfactant-laden shear-imposed film flow","authors":"Arnab Choudhury, Arghya Samanta","doi":"10.1103/physrevfluids.9.084002","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevfluids.9.084002","url":null,"abstract":"We examine the linear thermocapillary instability of a two-dimensional gravity-driven shear-imposed incompressible viscous film flowing over a uniformly heated inclined wall when the film surface is covered by an insoluble surfactant. The aim is to expand the prior research [Wei, <span>Phys. Fluids</span> <b>17</b>, 012103 (2005)] to the case of a nonisothermal viscous film. As a result, the energy equation is incorporated into the governing equations along with the mass conservation and momentum equations. In the present study, we have found two additional thermocapillary S- and P-modes in the low to moderate Reynolds number regime, along with the known H-mode (surface mode) and surfactant mode. The long-wave analysis predicts that the surfactant Marangoni number, which measures the surface tension gradient due to a change in insoluble surfactant concentration, has a stabilizing impact on the H-mode, but the thermal Marangoni number, which measures the surface tension gradient due to a change in temperature, has a destabilizing impact. These opposing effects produce an analytical relationship between them for which the critical Reynolds number for the H-mode instability of the nonisothermal film flow coincides with that of the isothermal film flow. On the other hand, the numerical result exhibits that the surfactant Marangoni number has a stabilizing influence on the thermocapillary S-mode and P-mode. More specifically, these thermocapillary instabilities diminish with an increase in the value of the surfactant Marangoni number. However, these thermocapillary instabilities can be made stronger by increasing the value of the thermal Marangoni number. Furthermore, the thermal Marangoni number destabilizes the surfactant mode instability, but the onset of instability is not affected in the presence of the thermal Marangoni number, which is in contrast to the influence of the surfactant Marangoni number on the onset of surfactant mode instability. Interestingly, the Biot number, which measures the ratio of heat convection and heat conduction, shows a dual role in the surfactant mode instability, even though the threshold of instability remains the same. In the high Reynolds number regime, the shear mode appears and is stabilized by the surfactant Marangoni number but destabilized by the thermal Marangoni number. Moreover, the comparison of results with inertia and without inertia exhibits a stabilizing role of inertia in the surfactant mode.","PeriodicalId":20160,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review Fluids","volume":"77 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141869062","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Manufacturing imperfections can often lead to unintentional misalignment of the plates of the rheometer, where the top and bottom plates are not perfectly parallel, and this misalignment can affect the fluid dynamics inside the rheometer. This study examines the effect that misalignment has on the viscosity measurements of Newtonian fluids in the limit of small rheometer gap heights. A theoretical model for the behavior of a general Newtonian fluid in a misaligned rheometer with a small gap height is derived using perturbation expansions. The theoretical results show that at small gap heights, misalignment can produce additional secondary velocity components and pressures in the fluid, which affect the forces and moments in the rheometer. In such cases at small Reynolds numbers, the dominant forces and moments acting on the top plate of the rheometer are the viscous force in the direction parallel to the tilt axis, the pressure moment in the direction perpendicular to the tilt axis and in the cross-sectional plane, and the viscous moment in the direction along the height of the rheometer. These forces and moments on the top plate were found to increase as the misalignment tilt angle increased, leading to an increase in the error of viscosity measurement by the rheometer. Three-dimensional numerical simulations validate the theoretical predictions.","PeriodicalId":20160,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review Fluids","volume":"49 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141869066","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unstable modes from linear stability can be retrieved. The influence of the riblets on the most amplified flow structures is investigated through a transient growth analysis: a resonance is found when the riblet wavenumber is equal to the wavenumber of the optimal streaks in a smooth channel flow. For large riblet spacing, a wavenumber lock-in regime, in which the streaks dynamics and wavelength are totally controlled by the riblet spacing, is observed. Physically, a modulation of the streaks amplitude in the spanwise direction via a beating mechanism is seen. These phenomena are characteristic of dynamic systems spatially forced and may exhibit geometric frustration. Similar results were found in the study of secondary flows in Rayleigh-Bénard convection with wavy walls. A resolvent analysis is also performed: it is found that riblets lead to the development of oblique waves that may trigger an early transition.","PeriodicalId":20160,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review Fluids","volume":"160 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141869064","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This condensed layer may overscreen the surface charge, and eventually a coion-dominated region may arise within the electric double layer, which again draws a layer of counterions and so on till the charge density approaches zero. Such a type of overscreening and charge density oscillation cannot be predicted through the mean-field based models as it does not account for the correlations between discrete charges. In the present study the mean-field-based model has been extended to consider the many-body interactions to analyze the electro-osmosis and ion transport of multivalent electrolytes in a highly charged nanopore. The ions are considered to be finite-sized, which is accounted for by considering the hydrodynamic steric interactions and modification of the suspension medium viscosity. Consideration of the electrostatic correlation leads to a fourth-order Poisson-Fermi equation for an electric field. Such a type of continuum model is easy to handle and to use to predict the layered structure of the EDL. Our model captures the existing experimental and molecular dynamics simulation correctly. Based on the modified model, we have analyzed the volume flow rate, current density, and ion selectivity of the pore in multivalent electrolytes for different electrostatic conditions. The present model shows that the counterion size has an impact on the condensed layer and hence overscreening. We demonstrate that the EOF reversal of multivalent electrolytes can be suppressed by mixing with monovalent slats.","PeriodicalId":20160,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review Fluids","volume":"44 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141775933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
