Turbulence in Soft Walled Micro Channels

Turbulence in Soft Walled Micro Channels

In comparison to the flow in a rigid channel, there is a multi-fold reduction in the transition Reynolds number for the flow in a micro channel when one of the walls is made sufficiently soft, due to a dynamical instability induced by the fluid-wall coupling. The flow after transition is characteriz...
