Abstract
Fluid dynamics videos of unstable thin annular liquid sheets are presented in this short paper. These videos are to be presented in the Gallery of Fluid Motion for the American Physical Society 65th Annual Meeting of the Division of Fluid Dynamics in San Diego, CA, 18-20 November 2012. An annular sheet of thickness h=1mm and mean radius R=18.9mm is subjected to aerodynamic axial shear from co-flowing air at various shear rates on both the inner and outer surface at a liquid sheet Reynolds Number of Re=500.
