In low-density axisymmetric jets, the onset of global instability is known to depend on three
control parameters, namely the jet-to-ambient density ratio. This scaling, which is insensitive …

The absolute/convective character of the linear instability of axisymmetric jets is investigated
for a wide range of parallel velocity and density profiles. An adjoint-based sensitivity …

The present study employs a linear global stability analysis to investigate buoyancy-induced
flickering of axisymmetric laminar jet diffusion flames as a hydrodynamic global mode. The …
