Controlling the Saffman-Taylor instability
This video shows finite element simulations of the air-fluid interface in a lifting Hele-Shaw cell. These demonstrate the existence of several different self-similar modes of...

Controlling vortex breakdown in swirling pipe flow
A vortex breakdown occurs as fluid flows from a rotating pipe into a stationary pipe at a constant rate. The decaying swirl creates an adverse pressure gradient on the pipe axis,...

Direct numerical simulations of transonic wings at moderate Reynolds numbers
Direct numerical simulations around Dassault Aviation's V2C airfoil were carried out at a Reynolds number Re=500,000 and a Mach number M=0.7. The movie shows vorticity contours in...

Droplet breakage
As a liquid bath is perturbed, at a particular acceleration standing waves, called Faraday waves, will appear on the whole surface of the bath. As acceleration increases beyond...

Dye flow visualisation of vortex shedding in a synthetic jet
Dye visualisation of a synthetic jet in cross flow in water, whose non-dimensional stroke length exceeds the circulation limit of the primary vortex. Consequently, excess...

Finding Nessie: the structure and origin of confined Holmboe waves
This video relates our journey to look for order in the chaos of stratified turbulent flows. We tell the story of how we found three-dimensional coherent structures using...

Instabilities in ferrofluid
A 50 mm long magnet placed at the bottom of a petri dish with 1 mm layer of ferrofluid. Following the gradient of magnetic field, the fluid forms a hump over the magnet. First,...

Jet formation and instability of a breaking axisymmetric standing wave
Video of Jet formation on an axisymmetric standing wave created in the FloWave circular wave tank at the University of Edinburgh. A jet emanates from the crest of the wave, which...

Marangoni instability from picolitre sessile droplets
What if a picolitre ethanol drop hits a thin water film of a few microns? High speed camera caught the moment of drop impact: water film is contracted into a drop and repelled,...

Radial Marangoni instability in an evaporating sessile droplet
Evaporation of a picolitre droplet of ethanol and water with suspended particles that track Marangoni driven flows. A radial instability in the flow leads to the appearance of a...

Thermoacoustic and lean blowoff instabilities in lean premixed swirl flame
Thermoacoustic (395 Hz) and lean blowoff (7.8 Hz) instabilities were observed using high-speed (4000 Hz) OH* chemiluminescence in a premixed methane-air swirl flame. The...
