The Physics of Fluids

A localized arc-filament plasma actuator, which in this application is recessed in a small cavity near the nozzle lip, causes intense local heating. This heating is thought to be the root mechanism of its influence on the flow, but how this principally entropic thermal source couples with the vortical jet shear layer turbulence downstream is unclear. We investigate this using direct numerical simulations, the results of which have illuminated several features of the actuation.

A lubrication theory is derived for this system which is qualitatively compared to preliminary experimental data to explain the emergence of a particle-rich ridge observed experimentally in a thin film particle-laden flow on an incline.
Shock wave formation in the collapse of a vapor nanobubble.
- PhysicsPhysical review letters
- 2015
In this Letter, the dynamics of a collapsing vapor bubble is addressed by means of a diffuse-interface formulation that cleanly captures all the critical features of the process, such as phase change, transition to supercritical conditions, thermal conduction, compressibility effects, and shock wave formation and propagation.
Cooling flow regime of a plasma thermal quench
