We study the growth of Richtmyer-Meshkov mixing layers from an initial surface with spatially localized perturbations. We use two symmetric forms of the initial patch, which allow simulation data to be averaged to generate a two-dimensional statistical representation of the three dimensional turbulent flow. We find that as the mixing layer grows, the turbulent structures tend to form into discrete packets separated from the surface, with material entrainment into them dominated by a laminar entrainment flow inward from the surrounding regions where the surface was originally smooth. The entrainment appears to be controlled by the propagation of vortex pairs which appear at the boundary of the region of initial perturbations. This suggests that the growth of RM mixing from isolated features, as may be found in manufactured Inertial Confinement Fusion capsules, has a rather different mechanism than the growth of an RM mixing layer when the perturbations are uniform. This may be a challenge for some existing engineering models.

We study the Richtmyer--Meshkov (RM) instability of a relativistic perfect fluid by means of high order numerical simulations with adaptive mesh refinement (AMR). The numerical scheme adopts a finite volume Weighted Essentially Non-Oscillatory (WENO)
reconstruction to increase accuracy in space, a local space-time discontinuous Galerkin predictor method to obtain high order of accuracy in time and a high order one-step time update scheme together with a cell-by-cell space-time AMR strategy with time-accurate local time stepping. In this way, third order accurate (both in space and in time) numerical simulations of the RM instability are performed, spanning a wide parameter space. We present results both for the case in which a light fluid penetrates into a higher density one (Atwood number $A>0$), and for the case in which a heavy fluid penetrates into a lower density one (Atwood number $A<0$). We find that, for large Lorentz factors gamma_s of the incident shock wave, the relativistic RM instability is substantially weakened and ultimately suppressed. More specifically, the growth rate of the RM instability in the linear phase has a local maximum which occurs at a critical value of gamma_s ~ [1.2,2]. Moreover, we have also revealed a genuine relativistic effect, absent in Newtonian hydrodynamics, which arises in three dimensional configurations with a non-zero velocity component tangent to the incident shock front. In this case, the RM instability is strongly affected, typically resulting in less efficient mixing of the fluid.
Experimental and numerical study of the steady-state cyclonic vortex from isolated heat source in a rotating fluid layer is described. The structure of laboratory cyclonic vortex is similar to the typical structure of tropical cyclones from observati
onal data and numerical modelling including secondary flows in the boundary layer. Differential characteristics of the flow were studied by numerical simulation using CFD software FlowVision. Helicity distribution in rotating fluid layer with localized heat source was analysed. Two mechanisms which play role in helicity generation are found. The first one is the strong correlation of cyclonic vortex and intensive upward motion in the central part of the vessel. The second one is due to large gradients of velocity on the periphery. The integral helicity in the considered case is substantial and its relative level is high.
Numerical analysis of a shear layer between a cool liquid n-decane hydrocarbon and a hot oxygen gas at supercritical pressures shows that a well-defined phase equilibrium can be established. Variable properties are considered with the product of dens
ity and viscosity in the gas phase showing a nearly constant result within the laminar flow region with no instabilities. Sufficiently thick diffusion layers form around the liquid-gas interface to support the case of continuum theory and phase equilibrium. While molecules are exchanged for both species at all pressures, net mass flux across the interface shifts as pressure is increased. Net vaporization occurs for low pressures while net condensation occurs at higher pressures. For a mixture of n-decane and oxygen, the transition occurs around 50 bar. The equilibrium values at the interface quickly reach their downstream asymptotes. For all cases, profiles of diffusing-advecting quantities collapse to a similar solution (i.e., function of one independent variable). Validity of the boundary layer approximation and similarity are shown in both phases for Reynolds numbers greater than 239 at 150 bar. Results for other pressures are also taken at high Reynolds numbers. Thereby, the validity of the boundary layer approximation and similarity are expected. However, at very high pressures, the similar one-dimensional profiles vary for different problem constraints.
Subcritical transition to turbulence in spatially developing boundary layer flows can be triggered efficiently by finite amplitude perturbations. In this work, we employ adjoint-based optimization to identify optimal initial perturbations in the Blas
ius boundary layer, culminating in the computation of the subcritical transition critical energy threshold and the associated fully localized critical optimum in a spatially extended configuration, the so called minimal seed. By dynamically rescaling the variables with the local boundary layer thickness, we show that the identified edge trajectory approaches the same attracting phase space region as previously reported edge trajectories, and reaches the region more efficiently.
Previous works for a liquid suddenly contacting a gas at a supercritical pressure show the coexistence of both phases and the generation of diffusion layers on both sides of the liquid-gas interface due to thermodynamic phase equilibrium. A related n
umerical study of a laminar mixing layer between the liquid and gas streams in the near field of the splitter plate suggests that mass, momentum and thermal diffusion layers evolve in a self-similar manner at very high pressures. In this paper, the high-pressure, two-phase, laminar mixing-layer equations are recast in terms of a similarity variable. A liquid hydrocarbon and gaseous oxygen are considered. Freestream conditions and proper matching conditions at the liquid-gas interface are applied. To solve the system of equations, a real-fluid thermodynamic model based on the Soave-Redlich-Kwong equation of state is selected. A comparison with results obtained by directly solving the laminar mixing-layer equations shows the validity of the similarity approach applied to non-ideal two-phase flows. Even when the gas is hotter than the liquid, condensation can occur at high pressures while heat conducts into the liquid. Finally, a generalized correlation is proposed to represent the evolution of the mixing layer thickness for different problem setups.
