Abstract:
Using initial value problem approach the evolution of linearized disturbances in a stratified shear flow is studied. The resulting equation in time posed by using Fourier transform is solved for the Fourier amplitudes for the case of bounded couette flow with point source of the field of transverse velocity and density as the initial distributions. For small values of Brunt frequency the perturbation solutions are obtained.

Abstract:
Abstract It has long been known from measurements that buoyant motions cause the mean-velocity profile (MVP) in thermally-stratified, wall-bounded turbulent flows to significantly deviate from its constant-density counterpart. Theoretical analysis has restricted attention to an ‘intermediate layer’ of the MVP, akin to the celebrated ‘log layer’ in the constant-density case. Here, for thermally-stratified plane-Couette flows, we study the shape and scaling of the whole MVP. We elucidate the mechanisms that dictate the shape of the MVP by using the framework of the spectral link (Gioia et al 201

Abstract:
AbstractDirect numerical simulations of subcritical rotating, stratified and magneto-hydrodynamic wall-bounded flows are performed in large computational domains, focusing on parameters where laminar and turbulent flow can stably coexist. In most cases, a regime of large-scale oblique laminar-turbulent patterns is identified at the onset of transition, as in the case of pure shear flows. The current study indicates that this oblique regime can be shifted up to large values of the Reynolds number $\mathit{Re}$ by increasing the damping by the Coriolis, buoyancy or Lorentz force.

Abstract:
Experiments and numerical simulations have shown that turbulence in transitional wall-bounded shear flows frequently takes the form of long oblique bands if the domains are sufficiently large to accommodate them. These turbulent bands have been observed in plane Couette flow, plane Poiseuille flow, counter-rotating Taylor–Couette flow, torsional Couette flow, and annular pipe flow. At their upper Reynolds number threshold, laminar regions carve out gaps in otherwise uniform turbulence, ultimately forming regular turbulent–laminar patterns with a large spatial wavelength.

The stability conditions of the flow between two concentric cylinders with the inner one rotating (circular Couette flow) have been investigated experimentally and theoretically for a fluid with axial, stable linear density stratification.

We investigate the nonlinear equilibration of magnetic fields in a smooth helical flow at large Reynolds number Re and magnetic Reynolds number Rm with Re[Gt ]Rm[Gt ]1. We start with a smooth spiral Couette flow driven by boundary conditions. Such flows act as dynamos, that is are unstable to growing magnetic fields; here we disregard purely hydrodynamic instabilities such as Taylor–Couette modes. The dominant feedback from a magnetic field mode is only on the mean flow and this yields a simplified ‘mean-flow system’ consisting of one magnetic mode and the mean flow, which we solve numerically

Abstract:
This article reviews recent developments in the analysis of interfacial instabilities in systems involving multiple viscous and viscoelastic fluids. The scope of the review is limited to three basic problems in stratified shear flows: plane Poiseuille-Couette flow, circular Poiseuille flow, and gravity-driven film flow down an inclined plane. Important advances in this field of study are summarized and areas deserving further development are discussed.

Abstract:
The linear stability of plane Couette flow is investigated when the plates are horizontal, and the fluid is stably stratified with a cubic basic density profile. The disturbances are treated as inviscid and diffusion of the density field is neglected. Previous studies have shown that this density profile can develop multiple neutral curves, despite the stable stratification, and the fact that plane Couette flow of homogeneous fluid is stable. It is shown that when the neutral curves are plotted with wave angle on one axis, and location of the density inflexion point on the other axis, they pro

Abstract:
The objective of this study is to expound on the deliverables of a steady-state RANS (Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes) simulation in one of the simplest flows, Couette flow, at a very high Reynolds number. To that end, a process to perform better grid sensitivity testing is introduced. Three two-equation turbulence models ( , , and ) are compared against each other as well as pitted against formal literature on the subject and core flow velocities, slopes, wall-bounded velocities, shear stresses and kinetic energies are analyzed. applied with enhanced wall functions is consistently found to be

Abstract:
Direct numerical simulation (DNS) is performed for two wall-bounded flow configurations: laminar Couette flow at $Re=740$ and turbulent channel flow at $Re_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D70F}}=180$, where $\unicode[STIX]{x1D70F}$ is the shear stress at the wall. The top wall is smooth and the bottom wall is a realistically rough superhydrophobic surface (SHS), generated from a three-dimensional surface profile measurement. The air–water interface, which is assumed to be flat, is simulated using the volume-of-fluid (VOF) approach. The two flow cases are studied with varying interface heights $h$ to underst

Abstract:
The effect of an insoluble surfactant on the centrifugal and shear instability of a pair of radially stratified immiscible liquids in the annular gap between concentric two-fluid Taylor–Couette flow is investigated by a normal-mode linear analysis and complementary energy analysis. The interface is assumed to be concentric with the cylinders. The gravitational effects are ignored. Influences of density and viscosity stratification, surface tension, surfactant concentration distribution and Taylor–Couette shearing are considered comprehensively.
