We study experimentally the impulse response of a cylinder wake below the critical Reynolds number of the B\'enard-von K\'arm\'an instability. In this subcritical regime, a localized inhomogeneous region of convective instability exists…
In this study, a series of simulations are conducted to investigate the motion of a small cylinder in an expansion tube, focusing on two-dimensional dynamics. These simulations are performed on the FLUENT platform employing the Overset…
Viscoelastic fluids exhibit elastic instabilities in simple shear flow and flow through curved streamlines. Surprisingly, we found in a porous medium such fluids show strikingly different hydrodynamic instabilities depicted by very large…
A numerical investigation for the stability of the incompressible slip flow of normal quantum fluids (above the critical phase transition temperature) inside a microslab where surface acoustic waves propagate along the walls is presented.…
We perform large eddy simulations of flow past a circular cylinder for the Reynolds number ($Re$) range, $2\times 10^3 \leq Re \leq 4\times10^5$, spanning subcritical, critical and supercritical regimes. We investigate the spanwise…
Rotor-stator cavity flows are known to exhibit unsteady flow structures in the form of circular and spiral rolls. While the origin of the spirals is well understood, that of the circular rolls is not. In the present study the axisymmetric…
We revisit the somewhat classical problem of the linear stability of a rigidly rotating liquid column in this communication. Although literature pertaining to this problem dates back to 1959, the relation between inviscid and viscous…
The possibility that the magnetic shear-flow instability (MRI, Balbus-Hawley instability) might give rise to turbulence in a cylindric Couette flow is investigated through numerical simulations. The study is linear and the fluid flow is…
Mixing and heat transfer rates are typically enhanced when operating at high-pressure transcritical turbulent flow regimes. The rapid variation of thermophysical properties in the vicinity of the pseudo-boiling region can be leveraged to…
The slow viscous flow through a doubly-periodic array of cylinders does not have an analytical solution. However, as a reduced model for the flow within fibrous porous media, this solution is important for many real-world systems. We…
We present numerical simulations of laminar and turbulent channel flow of an elastoviscoplastic fluid. The non-Newtonian flow is simulated by solving the full incompressible Navier-Stokes equations coupled with the evolution equation for…
The flow past a fixed finite-length circular cylinder, the axis of which makes a nonzero angle with the incoming stream, is studied through fully-resolved simulations, from creeping-flow conditions to strongly inertial regimes. The…
Spatial linear instability analysis is employed to investigate the instability of a viscoelastic liquid jet in a co-flowing gas stream. The theoretical model incorporates a non-uniform axial base profile represented by a hyperbolic tangent,…
Viscoelastic fluid flows in narrow non-uniform geometries are ubiquitous in various engineering applications and physiological flow systems. For such flows, one of the key interests is understanding how fluid viscoelasticity affects the…
This study revisits the development of viscoplastic flow in pipes and channels, focusing on the flow of a Bingham plastic. Using finite element simulations and the Papanastasiou regularisation, results are obtained across a range of…
The present paper deals with non Newtonian viscoelastic flows of Oldroyd-B tye in thin domains. Such geometries arise for example in the context of lubrication. More precisely, we justify rigorously the asymptotic model obtained…
We experimentally investigate the flow of a viscoelastic fluid in a parallel shear geometry at low Reynolds number. As the flow becomes unstable via a nonlinear subcritical instability, velocimetry measurements show non-periodic…
Particle image velocimetry is applied to the lid-driven flow in a cube to validate the numerical prediction of steady - oscillatory transition at lower than ever observed Reynolds number. Experimental results agree with the numerical…
The effects of polymer additives on Rayleigh--Taylor (RT) instability of immiscible fluids is investigated using the Oldroyd-B viscoelastic model. Analytic results obtained exploiting the phase-field approach show that in polymer solution…
In this paper, we consider viscoelastic flows in a rough domain (with typical roughness patterns of size $\epsilon$ < 1). We present and rigorously justify an asymptotic expansion with respect to $\epsilon$, at any order, based upon the…
