Direct numerical simulations of multi-layer Rayleigh-Taylor instability under asymmetric interfacial density stratification
Direct numerical simulations of thermally stratified multi-layer Rayleigh-Taylor instability are performed to investigate the influence of interfacial Atwood number (At) on instability growth, interfacial coupling, turbulent mixing, and spectral characteristics. A fully compressible, three-dimensional, high-fidelity Na...
