Uniform resonant chaotic mixing in fluid flows

Abstract: Laminar flows can produce particle trajectories that are chaotic, with nearby tracers separating exponentially in time. For time-periodic, two-dimensional flows and steady three-dimensional (3D) flows, enhancements in mixing due to chaotic advection are typically limited by impenetrable transport barriers that form at the boundaries between ordered and chaotic mixing regions. However, for time-dependent 3D flows, it has been proposed theoretically that completely uniform mixing is possible through a resonant m… Show more

“…Observations of a similar behavior in a completely different system, an external 3D time-periodic flow driven by a rotating sphere, strongly suggest this is a universal phenomenon [18]. The tube structure is closely related to the capture into resonances in 3D steady and unsteady flows [19][20][21][22].…”

“…Previous work on optimization of mixing has focused on breaking flow symmetries [1][2][3][4], or optimizing quantities associated with chaotic advection, such as Lyapunov exponents or topological entropy [5][6][7][8][9][10]. Recent work has also involved optimizing the norm of the concentration field [11,12], in a manner similar to here.…”
