Energy transport characteristics of converging Richtmyer–Meshkov instability

In this paper, the Richtmyer–Meshkov (RM) instability in spherical and cylindrical converging geometries with a Mach number of about 1.5 is investigated by using the direct numerical simulation method. The heavy fluid is sulfur hexafluoride, and the light fluid is nitrogen. The shock wave converges...
