Effect of topology changes on the breakup of a periodic liquid jet. (English) Zbl 1521.76111
Summary: The breakup of a periodic jet is examined computationally, using a front-tracking/finite-volume method, where the interface is represented by connected marker points moving with the fluid, while the governing equations are solved on a fixed grid. Tracking the interface allows control of whether topology changes take place or not. The Reynolds and Capillary numbers are kept relatively low \(( R e = 150\) and \(C a = 2)\) so most of the flow is well resolved. The effect of topology changes is examined by following the jet until it has mostly disintegrated, for different “coalescence criterion,” based on the thickness of thin films and threads. The evolution of both two-dimensional and fully three-dimensional flows is examined. It is found that although there is a significant difference between the evolution when no breakup takes place and when it does, once breakup takes place the evolution is relatively insensitive to exactly how it is triggered for a range of coalescence criterion, and any differences are mostly confined to the smallest scales.
