Fluids 22, 104102 (2010)]. One equation describes the location of the free surface and the second one the evolution of the mean concentration. This lubrication model was investigated previously in linearized form. The study is now extended to the fully nonlinear case of thin liquid films of a binary mixture (in one and two horizontal spatial dimensions) with and without heat transport. For an initially flat and motionless film heated from below, we analyze the component separation induced by the Soret effect. Nonlinear simulations show that the Soret effect can cause a multitude of interesting behaviors, such as oscillatory patterns and solitonlike structures (localized traveling drops or holes). A stronger component separation induced by stronger Soret effects favors faster-moving localized structures. For isothermal systems, we study the fusion and the mixing of two thin liquid films of different but perfectly miscible liquids. Marangoni-driven forces can cause delayed coalescence, ripple formation, and fingering patterns at the borderline between the two liquid layers. A systematic analysis for ripple pattern formation and finger instabilities at different diffusion constants shows that these phenomena appear more pronounced for lower diffusion in the system.

T2 - Langmuir N2 - We discuss a mechanism for controlled motion of drops with applications for microfluidics and microgravity. The mechanism is the following: a solid plate supporting a liquid droplet is simultaneously subject to lateral and vertical harmonic oscillations. In this way the symmetry of the back-and-forth droplet movement along the substrate under inertial effects is broken and thus will induce a net driven motion of the drop. We study the dependency of the traveled distance on the oscillation parameters (forcing amplitude, frequency, and phase shift between the two perpendicular oscillations) via phase field simulations. The internal flow structure inside the droplet is also investigated. We make predictions on resonance frequencies for drops on a substrate with a varying wettability.

Considering that the wettability is strongly dependent on the surface topography and surface roughness, we investigate – through experiments and theory – the effect of laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) generated on silicon (100) targets as a control parameter of wetting properties. To obtain structured silicon surfaces with different morphological features, we patterned the surface by irradiation with femtosecond pulses from an amplified Ti:Sapphire laser system (790 nm/100 fs/1 kHz) at a fluence in the range of 0.4–1.2 J/cm2 on a spot with a diameter about of 100 μm. Variation of the applied irradiation dose results in surface modifications with the roughness about of a few tens of nanometers are ranging from regular LIPSS patterns with the lateral period of about 500–700 nm to complex agglomerations of 3-D microstructures with several-μm feature size. The theoretical study on the correlation of wetting properties with the surface topography has been performed within a phase field model. We found an excellent agreement of numerical results with experiments.

The tank can rotate with constant velocity and/or can oscillate. For a glycerin‐water‐solution with high viscosity, oscillation amplitudes about 20 cm and frequencies of 0.5 Hz, we observe surface patterns generated by a parametric instability. The circular geometry of the channel assures in a natural way the periodic lateral boundary conditions often used in the numerical simulations. Up to our knowledge this is the first experiment which evidences the horizontal Faraday instability in a container without walls blocking the flow in the oscillation direction. Experimental and numerical results are compared and discussed.

Up to our knowledge this is the first experimental study of undular bores in a circular channel. For a setup without barriers, this geometry accomplishes in a natural way the periodic lateral boundary conditions, very often used in numerical simulations. An excellent agreement between the experiment and simulation has been achieved. The spatio-temporal structure of bores is well reproduced for the first few reflections or collisions.

For the experiment, eight unevenly distributed ultrasonic distance sensors measure the local height of the wave surface. The resonance curves show maxima only for odd multiples of the fundamental resonance frequency . We explained this behavior using a simple intuitive “ping-pong” like model. Collision of wave fronts can be observed for higher frequencies. Also, the wave reflection on the walls can be treated as wave collision with itself. The non-linearity seems to be weak in our study so the delay in the wave propagation before and after the collision is small. Time-space plots show localized propagating waves with high amplitudes for frequencies near resonance. Between the peaks low amplitude and harmonic patterns are observed. However, for higher frequencies, the frequency band for localized waves becomes wider. In the Fourier space-time plane, this can be observed as a point for the harmonic patterns or a superposition of two lines: one line parallel to wave-vector k axis corresponding to the excitation frequency and a second line with inclination given by wave propagation velocity . For planned future work, this result will help us to reconstruct the whole water surface elevation using time-series from only a few measurement points Y1 - 2023 UR - https://link.springer.com/article/10.1140/epjs/s11734-023-00790-z U6 - https://doi.org/10.1140/epjs/s11734-023-00790-z SN - 1951-6401 SN - 1951-6355 VL - Vol. 232 IS - 4 SP - 461 EP - 468 ER - TY - GEN A1 - Borcia, Rodica A1 - Borcia, Ion-Dan A1 - Bestehorn, Michael A1 - Sharma, Deewakar A1 - Amiroudine, Sakir T1 - Phase field modeling in liquid binary mixtures: isothermal and non-isothermal problems T2 - Physical Review Fluids N2 - The objective in the present paper is to study binary fluids with phase field modeling coupled with Navier-Stokes equations. An extended free energy is proposed to account for the continuous path from immiscible to miscible states. We consider fluid pairs that are immiscible for temperatures below the critical one (consolute temperature) and miscible above it. Our extended phase field equation permits us to move from the immiscible state (governed by the Cahn-Hilliard equation) to the miscible state (defined by the species diffusion equation). The scaling of interface tension and interface width with the distance to the critical point is highlighted. The whole system is mechanically excited showing Faraday instability of a flat interface. A linear stability analysis is performed for the stable case (interface waves) as well as for the unstable Faraday one. For the latter, a Floquet analysis shows the well-known Arnold's tongues as a function of the consolute temperature and depth layer. Moreover, two-dimensional finite difference simulations have been performed allowing us to model nonlinear flow patterns both in miscible and immiscible phases. Linear theory and nonlinear simulations show interesting results such as the diminishing of the wavelength of Faraday waves or a shift of the critical vibration amplitude when the consolute temperature is approached.

Meridional symmetry is broken by replacing the inner cylinder with a truncated cone (frustum). Waves are excited by individual longitudinal libration of the walls. The geometry is non-separable and exhibits wave focusing and wave attractors. We investigated laboratory and numerical results for the Ekman number E ≈ 10−6. inclination α = 5.71◦ and libration amplitudes ε 0.2 within the inertial wave band 0 < ω < 2Ω0 . Under the assumption that the inertial waves do not essentially affect the boundary-layer structure, we use classical boundary-layer analysis to study oscillating Ekman layers over a librating wall that is at an angle α = 0 to the axis of rotation. The Ekman layer erupts at frequency ω = f∗, where f∗ ≡ 2Ω0 sin α is the effective Coriolis parameter in a plane tangential to the wall. For the selected inclination this eruption occurs for the forcing frequency ω/Ω0 = 0.2. For the librating lids eruption occurs at ω/Ω0 = 2. The study reveals that the frequency dependence of the total kinetic energy Kω of the excited wave field is strongly connected to the square of the Ekman pumping velocity wE (ω) that, in the linear limit, becomes singular when the boundary layer erupts. This explains the frequency dependence of non-resonantly excited waves. By the localization of the forcing, the two configurations investigated, (i) frustum libration and (ii) lids together with outer cylinder in libration, can be clearly distinguished by their response spectra. Good agreement was found for the spatial structure of low-order wave attractors and periodic orbits (both characterized by a small number of reflections) in the frequency windows predicted by geometric ray tracing. For ‘resonant’ frequencies a significantly increased total bulk energy was found, while the energy in the boundary layer remained nearly constant. Inertial wave energy enters the bulk flow via corner beams, which are parallel to the characteristics of the underlying Poincaré problem. Numerical simulations revealed a mismatch between the wall-parallel mass fluxes near the corners. This leads to boundary-layer eruption and the generation of inertial waves in the corners.

Meandering jet streams and propagating Rossby waves are responsible for the variable weather in the mid-latitudes. Moreover, extreme weather events such as heat waves and cold spells are part of the jet stream dynamics. For many years, a simple analog in the form of a simplified laboratory experiment, the differentially heated rotating annulus, has provided insight into the dynamics of the meandering jet stream. In the present study, probability density distributions of extreme events from a long-term laboratory experiment are studied and compared to the atmospheric probability density distributions. Empirical distributions of extreme value monthly block data are derived for the experimental and atmospheric cases. Generalized extreme value distributions are adjusted to the empirical distributions, and the distribution parameters are compared. Good agreement was found, but the distributions of the experimental data showed a shift toward larger extreme values, and some explanations for this shift are suggested. The results indicate that the laboratory model might be a useful tool for investigating changes in extreme event distributions due to climate change. In the laboratory context, the change can be modeled by an increase in total temperature accompanied by a reduction in the radial heat contrast.

For many years scientists try to understand these flows by doing laboratory experiments. In the present paper we discuss two rather new laboratory experiments designed to study certain aspects of the atmospheric circulation. One of the experiments, the differentially heated rotating annulus at the Brandenburg University of Technology (BTU) Cottbus, has a cooled inner cylinder and a heated outer wall. However, the structure of the atmospheric meridional circulation motivates a variation of this “classical” design. In the second experiment described, operational at the Institute of Continuous Media Mechanics (ICMM) in Perm, heating and cooling is performed at different vertical levels that resembles more the atmospheric situation. Recent results of both experiments are presented and discussed. Differences and consistencies are highlighted. Though many issues are still open we conclude that both setups have their merits. The variation with heating and cooling at different levels might be more suited to study processes in the transition zone between pure rotating convection and the zone of westerly winds. On the other hand, the simpler boundary conditions of the BTU experiment make this experiment easier to control.
