Abstract

A fully temporal linear stability analysis for round liquid jets is accomplished in this study. Three-dimensional disturbances are considered and a detailed parametric investigation is performed. The results indicate that only the nonaxisymmetric mode with azimuthal wavenumber m=1 may prevail over the axisymmetric mode and appear to dominate the maximum growth rate. The domain in which the nonaxisymmetric modes may start to grow is also clarified. A comparison with experimental observations in the literature is also presented. The results provide a complete understanding of the stability characteristics of round liquid jets.
