Description of jet dynamics Basic equations of motion (u – r-velocity, w – z-velocity) Continuity r-momentum z-momentum For solution introduce the disturbance stream function to satisfy continuity Definition of stream function Institute of Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer Conex Mid-Term Meeting, Warsaw, October 2004 44
Elimination of pressure and linearization Eliminating the pressure from the momentum equations yields with the differential operator Linearization: neglect products of velocities and their derivatives Final equation for the stream function reads Institute of Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer Conex Mid-Term Meeting, Warsaw, October 2004 55
Solutions of the differential equation This differential equation is satisfied by functions 1 and 2 which are solutions of the two following equations We make the ansatz for wavelike solutions of the form where i = 1, 2 and obtain the amplitude functions where l 2=k 2+i / General solution of the linearised equation Institute of Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer Conex Mid-Term Meeting, Warsaw, October 2004 66

Comparison with Taylor’s experiment Flow situation: jet of lubricating oil in syrup Syrup Oil Syrup Dynamic viscosity ratio ´/ =0. 91 Calculation of the function (1 -x 2) (x) yields the maximum at ka = ka|opt = 0. 568 Measurements on photographs by Taylor yield a = 0. 272 mm, = 3. 452 mm → ka = 0. 495 Deviation of -13% → Tomotika claims satisfactory agreement Institute of Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer Conex Mid-Term Meeting, Warsaw, October 2004 1111
Problems with applications of the Tomotika results • Undisturbed relative motion of the two fluids not accounted for • Most results derived from Tomotika in the literature without inertia Dispersion relation with relative motion of jet in an inviscid host medium C. Weber: Zum Zerfall eines Flüssigkeitsstrahles. ZAMM 11 (1931), 136 -154. • Inviscid host medium allows for top-hat velocity profiles • Analytical derivation of dispersion relation is therefore possible Institute of Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer Conex Mid-Term Meeting, Warsaw, October 2004 1212
Remedy – dispersion relation from generalized approach Introduce into conservation the equations Continuity r-momentum z-momentum the correct disturbance approaches u = U + u´ and w = W + w´ with the quantities U and W of the undisturbed coaxial flow of a jet in its host medium, cancel terms of the undisturbed flow and neglect small quantities of higher order. → This leads again to a linearization of the momentum equations Institute of Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer Conex Mid-Term Meeting, Warsaw, October 2004 1313
Conservation equations for the disturbances The disturbance approach with non-parallel flow (U≠ 0) yields Continuity r-momentum z-momentum Procedure for the calculation – further work in the project • Calculate U (r, z) and W(r, z) for the undisturbed flow in both fluids (possibly using a similarity approach ? ) • Eliminate the pressure disturbance from the above momentum equations • Introduce stream function of the disturbance in a wavelike form Institute of Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer Conex Mid-Term Meeting, Warsaw, October 2004 1414
Summary, conclusions and further work • Instability of jets in another liquid is described by a determinantal dispersion relation • Maximum wave growth rate at ka ≈ 0. 57 for viscosity ratio close to one (Taylor’s experiment) • Limiting case of vanishing outer viscosity (Rayleigh, 1892) is contained in the solution • Cut-off wave number for instability remains unchanged against the Rayleigh (1879) case of an inviscid jet in a vacuum • Further work should lead to a description of jet instability with relative motion against the host medium. This will increase the value of the cut-off wave number Institute of Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer Conex Mid-Term Meeting, Warsaw, October 2004 1515
