Many thermohydraulic issues about the safety of light water reactors are related to complicated two-phase flow phenomena. In these phenomena, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis using the volume of fluid (VOF) method causes numerical diffusion generated by the first-order upwind scheme used in the convection term of the volume fraction equation. Thus, in this study, we focused on an interface compression (IC) method for such a VOF approach; this technique prevents numerical diffusion issues and maintains boundedness and conservation with negative diffusion. First, on a sufficiently high mesh resolution and without the IC method, the validation process was considered by comparing the amplitude growth of the interfacial wave between a two-dimensional gas sheet and a quiescent liquid using the linear theory. The disturbance growth rates were consistent with the linear theory, and the validation process was considered appropriate. Then, this validation process confirmed the effects of the IC method on numerical diffusion, and we derived the optimum value of the IC coefficient, which is the parameter that controls the numerical diffusion.

The linear stability theory of Tan & Homsy [1986] is extended to include the effects of weak nonlinear coupling between mass flux and viscous effects when the viscous fingers grow from a slowly diffusing, nearly flat displacement front. A regular perturbation scheme combined with a similarity-separation of variables technique leads to a Landau equation for the amplitude of the disturbance. The Landau constant has a simple pole for a given wavenumber within the linear theory cutoff wavenumber for growth. An argument is given that this pole leads to pairing of fingers while the instability remains small. Comparison of the length scale of the pole of the Landau constant with experimental measurements of finger scale shows good agreement where plausibly finite-amplitude effects might come into play, but with the linear theory otherwise.

Frequency Heating

Heating of a doublet plasma by driving an axisymmetric mode at low frequency may be an attractive means for auxiliary heating. The attractiveness of the method stems from (1) the low technology required for low-frequency power sources, (2) the fact that the field-shaping coils required for doublets may also be used as the antennae for transmitting the power, (3) the possibility of transmitting the power through a resistive vacuum wall, (4) the insensitivity to the plasma temperature and density and (5) the relative simplicity of the physical model. The utility of the concept depends on the existence of a special axisymmetric eigenmode in the resistive M.HD approximation which is used. This mode has nodes through the elliptic axes of the doublet equilibrium and an antinode at the hyperbolic axis. It is remarkable that the dissipation per cycle of this mode remains large at low plasma resistivity. This paper describes a linear theory for such heating.

Thin Disks

Analysis of the linear vibration characteristics of unconstrained rotating isotropic thin disks leads to the important concept of “critical speeds.” These critical rotational speeds are of interest because they correspond to the situation where a natural frequency of the rotating disk, as measured by a stationary observer, is zero. Such speeds correspond physically to the speeds at which a traveling circumferential wave, of shape corresponding to the mode shape of the natural frequency being considered, travel around the disk in the absence of applied forces. At such speeds, according to linear theory, the blade may respond as a space fixed stationary wave and an applied space fixed dc force may induce a resonant condition in the disk response. Thus, in general, linear theory predicts that for rotating disks, with low levels of damping, large responses may be encountered in the region of the critical speeds due to the application of constant space fixed forces. However, large response invalidates the predictions of linear theory which has neglected the nonlinear stiffness produced by the effect of in-plane forces induced by large displacements. In the present paper, experimental studies were conducted in order to measure the frequency response characteristics of rotating disks both in an idling mode as well as when subjected to a space fixed lateral force. The applied lateral force (produced by an air jet) was such as to produce displacements large enough that non linear geometric effects were important in determining the disk frequencies. Experiments were conducted on thin annular disks of different thickness with the inner radius clamped to the driving arbor and the outer radius free. The results of these experiments are presented with an emphasis on recording the effects of geometric nonlinearities on lateral frequency response. In a companion paper (Khorasany and Hutton, 2010, “Vibration Characteristics of Rotating Thin Disks—Part II: Analytical Predictions,” ASME J. Mech., 79(4), p. 041007), analytical predictions of such disk behavior are presented and compared with the experimental results obtained in this study. The experimental results show that in the case where significant disk displacements are induced by a lateral force, the frequency characteristics are significantly influenced by the magnitude of forced displacements.
