Linear theory of Richtmyer–Meshkov like flows

Abstract: The hydrodynamic flow generated by rippled shocks and rarefactions (Richtmyer-Meshkov like flows) is presented. When a corrugated shock travels inside an homogeneous fluid, it leaves pressure, density and velocity perturbations in the compressed fluid. The velocity perturbations generated in the composed fluid are inherently rotational. Vorticity is an important quantity in order to determine the asymptotic rate of growth in the linear stage. The size of the strongest vortices generated by the rippled shocks i… Show more

“…It is useful to study the behavior of the the characteristic times τ a , τ c , and τ e in figure 2, which locate the first relative minima and maxima of the shock pressure perturbation. The scalings of the the first three zero crossings of ps , represented by τ b , τ d , and τ f are discussed in [58]. The products (D−U)τ a , etc will be seen later to well approximate the characteristic lengths of the kinetic energy distribution.…”

“…The approach used to calculate the times τ a , τ c , and τ e is the same as that used by Euler [61] to obtain the first zeros of the ordinary Bessel functions. This approach has been successfully applied to calculate the characteristic times τ b , τ d , and τ f , corresponding to the first three zeros of the function ˜( ) p r s s [58]. In our case here, we are interested in the first three zeros of its derivative p r d d s s .…”

“…[30] Vorticity is considered as important quantity to determine the RMI growth rate in the ear stage. When the shock is weaker, the stored vorticity intensity is lower, [31] and then the RMI growth decreases. Hence, the 𝜂 cl a term grows slowly due to the relatively weak shock.…”
