无粘剪切流的长波不稳定性和增长率

Long-wave instability and growth rate of the inviscid shear flows

Liang Sun

摘要:

本文研究了剪切流的长波不稳定性。当扰动波数大于临界值时,流动总是中性稳定的。首先,我们得到了中性波数$k_1\leq (p^2-1)μ_1$的一个新的上界,其中$p>1$和$μ_1$是Poincaré问题的最小特征值。其次,我们找到了复相速度虚部的一个新的上界$c_i \leq k_1 ΔU/\sqrt{μ_1}$,其中$ΔU$是速度的方差。新的界限是有限的所有$k>0$类似霍华德的周期定理,而以前的Craik和Banerjee等人将是无穷大的$k\rightarrow 0$。第三,我们找到了一个新的增长率上界$ω_i \leq (p-1) \sqrt{μ_1} ΔU$。所有新的边界都比Høiland,Howard,Craik和Banerjee等人以前的边界严格得多.我们的结果也推广了Kraichnan的逆能量级联理论.由于剪切不稳定是由长波不稳定引起的,这意味着长波的截断可以改变剪切流的不稳定性。

英文摘要:

In this paper, we studied the long-wave instability of the shear flows. When the wavenumber of perturbation is larger than the critical value, the flow is always neutrally stable. First, we obtain a new upper bound for the neutral wavenumber $k_1\leq (p^2-1)μ_1$, where $p>1$ and $μ_1$ is the smallest eigenvalue of Poincaré's problem. Second, we find a new upper bound for the imaginary part of the complex phase velocity $c_i \leq k_1 ΔU/\sqrt{μ_1}$, where $ΔU$ is the variance of the velocity. The new bound is finite for all $k>0$ similar to the Howard's semicircle theorem, while the previous ones by Craik and Banerjee et al would be infinity as $k\rightarrow 0$. Third, we find a new upper bound of growth rate $ω_i \leq (p-1) \sqrt{μ_1} ΔU$. All the new bounds are much more strict than the previous ones by Høiland, Howard, Craik and Banerjee et al. Our results also extend the inverse energy cascade theory by Kraichnan. As shear instability is due to long-wave instability, it implies that the truncation of long-waves may change the instability of shear flows.
