Double-diffusive instability in core–annular pipe flow

Abstract: The instability in a pressure-driven core-annular flow of two miscible fluids having the same densities, but different viscosities in the presence of two scalars diffusing at different rates (double-diffusive effect) is investigated via linear stability analysis and axisymmetric direct numerical simulation. It is found that the double-diffusive flow in a cylindrical pipe exhibits strikingly different stability characteristics compared to the double-diffusive flow in a planar channel and the equivalent single-c… Show more

“…The transport of immiscible fluids in narrow fluidic channels/pipes is not only fundamentally interesting due to the appearance of different modes of instability but also relevant in many practical applications in lab-on-achip based biochemical analyses, [1,2] in micro electro mechanical system (MEMS) related devices, in coating industries, and in biomedical processes, to name a few (see other examples provided in the literature [3][4][5][6] ). In all the aforementioned applications, the underlying physics of the immiscible binary fluids is largely governed by the dynamics of the contact line.…”

“…For pipe geometry, although many studies have investigated the linear stability of immiscible and miscible multifluid flows with either no-slip or Navier slip boundary condition (Hu & Joseph 1989; Joseph 1997; Li & Renardy 1999; Selvam et al. 2007; Sahu 2016; Chattopadhyay et al. 2017, etc.…”

“…A simplified and widely used slip boundary condition is the Navier slip boundary condition, which has been shown to apply to many flow problems and is frequently adopted for linear stability studies (Vinogradova 1999;Lauga & Cossu 2005;Min & Kim 2005;Gan & Wu 2006;Ren, Chen & Zhu 2008;Ghosh, Usha & Sahu 2014;Seo & Mani 2016;Chattopadhyay, Usha & Sahu 2017, to list a few). For pipe geometry, although many studies have investigated the linear stability of immiscible and miscible multifluid flows with either no-slip or Navier slip boundary condition (Hu & Joseph 1989;Joseph 1997;Li & Renardy 1999;Selvam et al 2007;Sahu 2016;Chattopadhyay et al 2017, etc. ), far fewer studies were dedicated to the linear stability of single-phase pipe flow with slip boundary condition.…”

“…Pertaining to purely annular flow instabilities of multilayered polymeric systems, substantial work has been conducted in the areas of core-annular flow [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] and eccentric annular flow, [25][26][27] mainly due to interest in oil and gas drilling operations. In the realm of polymer melt flow, little work has been conducted on flow through concentric annuli, due to the geometries' high tolerance of flow instabilities.…”
