Organized structures in turbulent jets can be modeled as wavepackets. These are
characterized by spatial amplification and decay, both of which are related to stability …

Thermally stratified storage tank studies have spanned over 50 years to increase the thermal
storage efficiency and accurate prediction of the outlet temperature particularly for solar …

Richardson and Reynolds number effects on the near field of buoyant plumes: temporal
variability and puffing Page 1 J. Fluid Mech. (2022), vol. 950, A24, doi:10.1017/jfm.2022.788 …

The transient dynamics of the precessing vortex core (PVC), a globally unstable mode, in an
intermittently shape-transitioning swirl flame is investigated by means of simultaneous OH …

Return vent height significantly influences energy consumption, indoor air quality (IAQ), and
thermal comfort of rooms ventilated by underfloor air distribution (UFAD) systems. Previous …

Jet flows are ubiquitous in nature and laboratories. For example, helium and argon jets into
ambient air are commonly used to produce atmospheric plasma jets. The jets before and …

The convective instability of the natural convection boundary layers of air (Pr= 0.7) in the
laminar-to-turbulent transition regime (Ra= 8.7× 10 7–1.1× 10 9) is investigated by stability …

One dozen vertically oriented thin rectangular vanes, 62 cm tall and 15.2 cm wide, were
placed 27 cm from the center of heptane and ethanol pool fires in continuously fed, floor …

The vorticity dynamics of turbulent, buoyant, and pure plumes released into the quiescent
ambience has been investigated using large-eddy simulations with plume Reynolds number …

This study investigates the linear stability of a laminar premixed flame, anchored on a
square cylinder and confined inside a channel. Many modern linear analysis concepts have …
