Self-consistent triple decomposition of the turbulent flow over a backward-facing step under finite amplitude harmonic forcing

François Gallaire, Philippe Meliga, Eunok Yim

We investigate the saturation of harmonically forced disturbances in the turbulent flow over a backward-facing step subjected to a finite amplitude forcing. The analysis relies on a triple decomposition of the unsteady flow into mean, coherent and incohere ...

Weakly nonlinear versus semi-linear models of the nonlinear evolution of the centrifugal instability

François Gallaire, Eunok Yim

We carry out a weakly nonlinear analysis of the centrifugal instability for a columnar vortex in a rotating fluid, and compare the results to those of the semi-linear model derived empirically by Yim et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 897, 2020, A34). The asympt ...

Buoyancy-driven convection of droplets on hot nonwetting surfaces

François Gallaire, Eunok Yim

The global linear stability of a water drop on hot nonwetting surfaces is studied. The droplet is assumed to have a static shape and the surface tension gradient is neglected. First, the nonlinear steady Boussinesq equation is solved to obtain the axisymme ...

Nonlinear evolution of the centrifugal instability using a semilinear model

François Gallaire, Eunok Yim

We study the nonlinear evolution of the axisymmetric centrifugal instability developing on a columnar anticyclone with a Gaussian angular velocity using a semilinear approach. The model consists of two coupled equations: one for the linear evolution of the ...

Optimal spanwise-periodic control for recirculation length in a backward-facing step flow

François Gallaire, Edouard Boujo, Eunok Yim, Isha Shukla

Three-dimensional control is considered in the flow past a backward-facing step (BFS). The BFS flow at Reynolds number Re = 500 (defined with the step height and the maximum inlet velocity) is two-dimensional and linearly stable but increasingly receptive ...
