A facility to produce and quantify accelerated flow mixing at high fidelity

瑞利-泰勒混合设施将产生必要的数据，以推进与较轻流体加速进入较重流体时发生的不稳定性和混合相关的技术。它的设计集成了一系列现有的高分辨率测量技术，允许获取全球唯一的数据集。预期的结果包括缺乏研究与地球物理、大气动力学、薄膜沉积、燃烧和惯性约束聚变应用相关的问题的能力。优势来自于通过理论指导生成独特的数据集，先发制人地获取世界领先的技术开发能力，从而改进著名应用中的设计和预测。

The Rayleigh-Taylor Mixing Facility will produce data needed to advance technologies allied to the instabilities and mixing that occur when a lighter fluid is accelerated into a heavier fluid. Its design integrates a host of existing high-resolution measurement technologies, allowing for the acquisition of globally unique data sets. Expected outcomes include the missing capacity to study problems having relevance to applications in geophysics, atmospheric dynamics, thin film deposition, combustion and inertial confinement fusion. Benefit derives from preemptively capturing a world-leading capacity for technology development via theory guided generation of unique data sets that advance design and prediction in the noted applications.
