We report new chemoconvective pattern formation phenomena observed in a two-layer system of miscible fluids filling a vertical Hele-Shaw cell. We show both experimentally and theoretically that the concentration-dependent diffusion coupled…
We fill a viscous liquid in a vertically stood cell of millimeter thickness, called the Hele-Shaw cell, and insert a disk in the liquid whose thickness is smaller than the cell thickness. The disk starts falling in the liquid due to gravity…

Let the interface between two immiscible fluids in a Hele-Shaw cell have, at t=0, a wedge shape. As a wedge is scale-free, the fluid relaxation dynamics are self-similar. We find the dynamic exponent of this self-similar flow and show that…
