Abstract:
The use of a column of steadily drained foam as a sample of wet foam is limited
by flow instability as the liquid fraction is increased. We report a study of this instability, which
takes the form of a convective roll of bubble motion at a value of liquid fraction roughly half
that of the wet foam limit at which a static wet foam becomes unstable.
