... at the interface is equal to zero. Lee [ 9 ] derived the interfacial mass and heat transfer conditions for Rayleigh–Taylor instability of cylindrical flow. The interfacial condition, which expresses the conservation of mass across the interface, is given by the equation (2.5) [ [ ρ ( ∂ F ∂ t...

... approaching the baseline case. Larger wavelengths grow faster, as well as homogenize the flow at a faster rate. The mixing width growth rates were shown to be dependent on initial conditions, slightly outside of experimental uncertainty. Rayleigh-Taylor instability: a heavy fluid accelerated...

...Pardeep Kumar; Roshan Lal The Rayleigh-Taylor instability of a Newtonian viscous fluid overlying Walters B ′ viscoelastic fluid is considered. For the stable configuration, the system is found to be stable or unstable under certain conditions. However, the system is found to be unstable...

... approach allows for the first time detailed observation of interfacial phenomena and mixing throughout the breakup cycle over a wide range of Weber numbers. Key findings are that Rayleigh-Taylor instability alone is the active mechanism for freestream Weber numbers as low as 28 for low viscosity liquids...
