Understanding ventilation strategy of a supercavity is important for designing high-speed underwater vehicles wherein an artificial gas pocket is created behind a flow separation device for drag reduction. Our study investigates the effect of flow unsteadiness on the ventilation requirements to form (CQf) and collapse (CQc) a supercavity. Imposing flow unsteadiness on the incoming flow has shown an increment in higher CQf at low free stream velocity and lower CQf at high free stream velocity. High-speed imaging reveals distinctly different behaviors in the recirculation region for low and high freestream velocity under unsteady flows. At low free stream velocities, the recirculation region formed downstream of a cavitator shifted vertically with flow unsteadiness, resulting in lower bubble collision and coalescence probability, which is critical for the supercavity formation process. The recirculation region negligibly changed with flow unsteadiness at high free stream velocity and less ventilation is required to form a supercavity compared to that of the steady incoming flow. Such a difference is attributed to the increased transverse Reynolds stress that aids bubble collision in a confined space of the recirculation region. CQc is found to heavily rely on the vertical component of the flow unsteadiness and the free stream velocity. Interfacial instability located upper rear of the supercavity develops noticeably with flow unsteadiness and additional bubbles formed by the distorted interface shed from the supercavity, resulting in an increased CQc. Further analysis on the quantification of such additional bubble leakage rate indicates that the development and amplitude of the interfacial instability accounts for the variation of CQc under a wide range of flow unsteadiness. Our study provides some insights on the design of a ventilation strategy for supercavitating vehicles in practice.

Indoor ventilation is essential for a healthy and comfortable living environment. A key issue is to discharge anthropogenic air contamination such as CO2 gas or, more seriously, airborne respiratory droplets. Here, by employing direct numerical simul
ations, we study the mechanical displacement ventilation with the realistic range of air changes per hour (ACH) from 1 to 10. For this ventilation scheme, a cool lower zone is established beneath the warm upper zone with the interface height h depending on ACH. For weak ventilation, we find the scalings relation of the interface height h ~ ACH^{3/5}, as suggested by Hunt & Linden (Build. Environ., vol. 34, 1999, pp. 707-720). Also, the CO2 concentration decreases with ACH within this regime. However, for too strong ventilation, the interface height h becomes insensitive to ACH, and the CO2 concentration remains unchanged. Our results are in contrast to the general belief that stronger flow is more helpful to remove contaminants. We work out the physical mechanism governing the transition between the low ACH and the high ACH regimes. It is determined by the relative strength of the kinetic energy from the inflow, potential energy from the stably-stratified layers, and energy loss due to drag. Our findings provide a physics-based guideline to optimize displacement ventilation.
In this article we consider the linear stability of the two-dimensional flow induced by the linear stretching of a surface in the streamwise direction. The basic flow is a rare example of an exact analytical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations. U
sing results from a large Reynolds number asymptotic study and a highly accurate spectral numerical method we show that this flow is linearly unstable to disturbances in the form of Tollmien-Schlichting waves. Previous studies have shown this flow is linearly stable. However, our results show that this is only true for G{o}rtler-type disturbances.
In this chapter, we analyze the steady-state microscale fluid--structure interaction (FSI) between a generalized Newtonian fluid and a hyperelastic tube. Physiological flows, especially in hemodynamics, serve as primary examples of such FSI phenomena
. The small scale of the physical system renders the flow field, under the power-law rheological model, amenable to a closed-form solution using the lubrication approximation. On the other hand, negligible shear stresses on the walls of a long vessel allow the structure to be treated as a pressure vessel. The constitutive equation for the microtube is prescribed via the strain energy functional for an incompressible, isotropic Mooney--Rivlin material. We employ both the thin- and thick-walled formulations of the pressure vessel theory, and derive the static relation between the pressure load and the deformation of the structure. We harness the latter to determine the flow rate--pressure drop relationship for non-Newtonian flow in thin- and thick-walled soft hyperelastic microtubes. Through illustrative examples, we discuss how a hyperelastic tube supports the same pressure load as a linearly elastic tube with smaller deformation, thus requiring a higher pressure drop across itself to maintain a fixed flow rate.
In present analysis, nanofluid transport near to a stagnation region over a bidirectionally deforming surface is scrutinized. The region is embedded with Darcy-Forchheimer medium which supports permeability. The porous matrix is suspended with nanofl
uid, and surface is under the influence of inconsistent heat source/sink. Using similarity functions, framed governing equations are switched to a collection of ordinary differential equations. Output is procured via optimal homotopy asymptotic method (OHAM). Basic notion of OHAM for a vector differential set-up is presented along with required convergence theorems. At different flow stagnation strengths, nanofluid behavior is investigated with respect to variations in porosity parameter, Forchheimer number, Brownian motion, stretching ratio, thermophoretic force, heat source/sink and Schimdt number. Stagnation flow strength invert the pattern of boundary layer profiles of primary velocity. Heat transfer has straightforward relation with Forchheimer number when stagnation forces dominate stretching forces
We perform a three-dimensional, short-wavelength stability analysis on the numerically simulated two-dimensional flow past a circular cylinder for Reynolds numbers in the range $50le Rele300$; here, $Re = U_{infty}D/ u$ with $U_infty$, $D$ and $ u$ b
eing the free-stream velocity, the diameter of the cylinder and the kinematic viscosity of the fluid, respectively. For a given $Re$, inviscid local stability equations from the geometric optics approach are solved on three distinct closed fluid particle trajectories (denoted as orbits 1, 2 & 3) for purely transverse perturbations. The inviscid instability on orbits 1 & 2, which are symmetric counterparts of one another, is shown to undergo bifurcations at $Reapprox50$ and $Reapprox250$. Upon incorporating finite-wavenumber, finite-Reynolds number effects to compute corrected local instability growth rates, the inviscid instability on orbits 1 & 2 is shown to be suppressed for $Relesssim262$. Orbits 1 & 2 are thus shown to exhibit a synchronous instability for $Regtrsim262$, which is remarkably close to the critical Reynolds number for the mode-B secondary instability. Further evidence for the connection between the local instability on orbits 1 & 2, and the mode-B secondary instability, is provided via a comparison of the growth rate variation with span-wise wavenumber between the local and global stability approaches. In summary, our results strongly suggest that the three-dimensional short-wavelength instability on orbits 1 & 2 is a possible mechanism for the emergence of the mode B secondary instability.
