Abstract We examine the convective and absolute instability of a 2D axisymmetric viscoelastic liquid jet falling vertically in a medium of an inviscid gas under the influence of gravity. We use the upper-convected Maxwell model to describe the viscoelastic liquid jet and together with an asymptotic approach, based on the slenderness of the jet, we obtain steady-state solutions. By considering travelling wave modes, and using linear instability analysis, the dispersion relation, relating the frequency to wavenumber of disturbances, is derived. We solve this dispersion relation numerically using the Newton–Raphson method and explore regions of instability in parameter space. In particular, we investigate the influence of gravity, the effect of changing the gas-to-liquid density ratio, the Weber number and the Deborah number on convective and absolute instability. In this paper, we utilize a mapping technique developed by Afzaal (2014, Breakup and instability analysis of compound liquid jets. Doctoral Dissertation, University of Birmingham) to find the cusp point in the complex frequency plane and its corresponding first-order saddle point (the pinch point) in the complex wavenumber plane for absolute instability. The convective/absolute instability boundary is identified for various parameter regimes along the axial length of the jet.

This paper presents theoretically the spatial-temporal instability behavior of an electrified viscoelastic liquid jet. Dimensionless parameters have been tested for their influence on the transition of absolute and convective instability for the electrified viscoelastic liquid jet. The results show that larger electrical Euler and Weber numbers can change the flow to convectively unstable. The increase of Reynolds number can decrease the absolute growth rate. Variations of time constant and density ratio rarely change the spatial-temporal instability behavior of the jet. The disturbance wavelength changes very little with these parameters when the flow is absolutely unstable.
