摘要: 应用摄动方法研究不同密度流体交界面上的Rayleigh-Taylor(R-T)不稳定性问题,分别研究了二维(2D)与三维(3D)R-T不稳定性的线性与非线性增长,并进行了对比。得出的结论为:(1) 三维不稳定性的线性增长比二维情况要快,且同维度上相同的初始扰动波长,其时间增长指数受另一维度上的初始波长影响。(2) R-T不稳定性发展在考虑了非线性增长的影响之后,二维与三维扰动增长的图像也不一样。Abstract: Rayleigh-Taylor (R-T) instability at the interface of two different fluids is studied analytically by using perturbation method. We analyze and compare the linear and nonlinear growth of R-T instability in two (2D) and three (3D) dimensions. The obtained conclusion includes, (1) linear growth of the instability in 3D is faster than that in 2D, and growing exponential of identical initial perturbation wavelength in one dimension is affected by that in others, (2) perturbation growth profile of R-T instability in 3D is different from that in 2D after allowing for nonlinear evolution.
