The collapse of a vapor bubble near a flat solid boundary results in the formation of a jet that is directed towards the boundary. In more complex geometries such as corners, predictions of the collapse cannot be made in a straightforward…
Nonlinear dynamics of the free surface of finite depth non-conducting fluid with high dielectric constant subjected to a strong horizontal electric field is considered. Using the conformal transformation of the region occupied by the fluid…
We experiment with injecting a continuous stream of gas into a shallow liquid, similar to how one might blow into a straw placed at the bottom of a near-empty drink. By varying the angle of the straw (here a metal needle), we observe a…
We investigate time-dependent inviscid hydrodynamical accretion flows onto a black hole using numerical simulations. We consider the accretion that consists of hot tenuous gas with low specific angular momentum and cold dense gas with high…
Motivated by the results in Gordillo and Blanco-Rodriguez, 'Bubble bursting jets are driven by the purely inertial collapse of gas cavities', \emph{Phys. Rev. Lett., Submitted} (2023) \cite{PRL2023}, where it is found that bubble bursting…
An ejection mechanism of relativistic jets from slim disks is studied. Since the radiation pressure is dominant in the slim disk, radiative energy flow arises along the pressure gradient in the vertical direction. The divergence of the…
A vapor bubble collapsing near a solid boundary in a liquid produces a liquid jet that points toward the boundary. The direction of this jet has been studied for boundaries such as flat planes and parallel walls enclosing a channel.…
We present the results of three dimensional relativistic hydrodynamic simulations of interaction of AGN jets with a dense turbulent two-phase interstellar medium, which would be typical of high redshift galaxies. We describe the effect of…
Fluid turbulence is commonly associated with stronger drag, greater heat transfer, and more efficient mixing than in laminar flows. In many natural and industrial settings, turbulent liquid flows contain suspensions of dispersed bubbles and…
A set of simulations concerning the influence of internal energy on the stability of relativistic jets is presented. Results show that perturbations saturate when the amplitude of the velocity perturbation approaches the speed of light…
The bottle-flip challenge -- the upright landing of a partially filled bottle after tossing and flipping it in the air -- unexpectedly became a viral mechanics exercise. Through high-speed visualization, we evidence that fluid content…
This fluid dynamic video entry to the 2011 APS-DFD Gallery of Fluid Motion details the transient evolution of the free surface surrounding the impact region of a low-viscosity laminar liquid jet as it enters a quiescent pool. The close-up…
We study the transition from momentum- to buoyancy-dominated regime in temporal jets forced by gravity. From the conservation of the thermal content and of the volume flux, we develop a simple model which is able to describe accurately the…
This study investigates the upward transport of waterborne pollutants from a lower container to an upper container through vertically falling water streams. While previous analyses have primarily focused on inclined channels, we extend the…
The jet wiping process is a cost-effective coating technique that uses impinging gas jets to control the thickness of a liquid layer dragged along a moving strip. This process is fundamental in various coating industries (mainly in hot-dip…
In this letter, the merging-vs-bouncing response of obliquely-oriented colliding jets under elevated and reduced gaseous environment pressures was experimentally examined. Experiments with water and n-tetradecane confirmed that the…
The planar laminar flow resulting from the impingement of two gaseous jets of different density issuing into an open space from aligned steadily fed slot nozzles of semi-width $R$ separated a distance $2H$ is investigated by numerical and…
A longstanding mystery about Jupiter has been the straightness and steadiness of its weather-layer jets, quite unlike terrestrial strong jets with their characteristic unsteadiness and long-wavelength meandering. The problem is addressed in…
This fluid dynamics video presents the gravity-driven jets induced by the relaxation of large prolate bubbles or large holes at a free liquid surface. It shows that the jet developing inside a bubble can be strong enough to give rise to…
Underexpanded jets are present in various engineering applications; in recent years, they have gained special attention because of the development of gas-fueled propulsion systems. In these apparatuses, the direct injection of fuels such as…
