A + B → C reaction fronts in Hele-Shaw cells under modulated gravitational acceleration

Eckert, Kerstin, Rongy, Laurence, De Wit, Anne 07 April 2014 (has links) (PDF)
The dynamics of A + B → C reaction fronts is studied under modulated gravitational acceleration by means of a combination of parabolic flight experiments and numerical simulations. During modulated gravity the front position undergoes periodic modulation with an accelerated front propagation under hyper-gravity together with a slowing down under low gravity. The underlying reason for this is an amplification and a decay, respectively, of the buoyancy-driven double vortex associated with the front propagation under standard gravitational acceleration, as explained by reaction–diffusion–convection simulations of convection around an A + B → C front. Deeper insights into the correlation between grey-value changes in the experimental shadowgraph images and characteristic changes in the concentration profiles are obtained by a numerical simulation of the imaging process. / Dieser Beitrag ist mit Zustimmung des Rechteinhabers aufgrund einer (DFG-geförderten) Allianz- bzw.

Magnetohydrodynamic instabilities of liquid metal contained between rotating spheres and cylinders

Ogbonna, Jude 25 October 2024 (has links)
Magnetohydrodynamic instabilities are responsible for geo- and astrophysical phenomena such as reversals of the geomagnetic field, sunspots, solar flares, and accretion disk dynamics. Two particular types of these instabilities were experimentally investigated in rotating spherical and cylindrical apparatus using the eutectic alloy GaInSn as a working fluid. The spherical apparatus, Hydromagnetic Experiment with Differentially Gyrating sphEres HOlding GaInSn (HEDGEHOG), was used to investigate the magnetised spherical Couette (MSC) flow for a range of the imposed axial magnetic field corresponding to Hartmann numbers of 0 to 40 and for a Reynolds number of 1000. A wave with an azimuthal wavenumber of 2 was observed at a Hartmann number of 0, which changed its azimuthal wavenumber to 3 at Hartmann numbers of 5 and 10. For Hartmann numbers between 10 and 22.5, the experimental flow displayed no temporal dependence, since the MSC flow was in its base state. In the remainder of the investigated range of Hartmann numbers, rotating waves with azimuthal wavenumbers of 2, 3, and 4 manifested, with some dependence on whether the Hartmann numbers were fixed or continuously varied. For the magnetised Taylor-Couette (MTC) flow investigated using the Potsdam ROssendorf Magnetic InStability Experiment (PROMISE), thermal convection was found to influence the azimuthal magnetorotational instability (AMRI) in two major ways. Firstly, it reduced the critical Hartmann number required for the onset of AMRI. Secondly, it broke the symmetry of the AMRI travelling waves so that they either travelled upwards or downwards depending on the direction of the radial heat flux.
