Electroconvective viscous fingering in a single polyelectrolyte fluid on a charge selective surface

J Kim, J Kim, M Kim, R Kwak - Nature Communications, 2023 - nature.com
When a low-viscosity fluid displaces into a higher-viscosity fluid, the liquid-liquid interface
becomes unstable causing finger-like patterns. This viscous fingering instability has been …

An experimental study on the role and contribution of the first normal stress difference and elongational viscosity in immiscible viscoelastic Saffman-Taylor instability

A Kazemi, M Norouzi, AA Nejad, M Kim, KC Kim… - … Research and Design, 2023 - Elsevier
This study experimentally examined the immiscible viscoelastic Saffman-Taylor instability
(STI) in porous media. The viscoelastic displacing fluids are solutions of glycerin, water, and …

Interfacial instabilities in confined displacements involving non-Newtonian fluids

VRS Parmar, R Bandyopadhyay - Europhysics Letters, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
The growth of interfacial instabilities during fluid displacements can be driven by gradients in
pressure, viscosity and surface tension, and by applying external fields. Since …
