Instability cellular

The initial development of a cellular structure from an originally flat interface has been at least partially understood [130]. Let us look only at the large-wavelength A limit (for more details see [122]). In the numerical calculations it was found [123] that for fixed cell-spacing A at increasing velocity a tail instability occurs. A side branch in the groove between two... 

Various factors affecting the nonpremixed edge speed, such as flame stretch, preferential diffusion, and heat loss, have also been investigated, including cellular and oscillatory instabilities of edge flames [1,39 3].

The presentation in this paper concentrates on the use of large-scale numerical simulation in unraveling these questions for models of two-dimensional directional solidification in an imposed temperature gradient. The simplest models for transport and interfacial physics in these processes are presented in Section 2 along with a summary of the analytical results for the onset of the cellular instability. The finite-element analyses used in the numerical calculations are described in Section 3. Steady-state and time-dependent results for shallow cell near the onset of the instability are presented in Section 4. The issue of the presence of a fundamental mechanism for wavelength selection for deep cells is discussed in Section 5 in the context of calculations with varying spatial wavelength. 

Reactors which generate vortex flows (VFs) are common in both planktonic cellular and biofilm reactor applications due to the mixing provided by the VF. The generation of Taylor vortices in Couette cells has been studied by MRM to characterize the dynamics of hydrodynamic instabilities [56], The presence of the coherent flow structures renders the mass transfer coefficient approaches of limited utility, as in the biofilm capillary reactor, due to the inability to incorporate microscale details of the advection field into the mass transfer coefficient model.
