Abstract: This study seeks to characterise the breakdown of the steady 2D solution in the flow around a 180-degree sharp bend to infinitesimal 3D disturbances using a linear stability analysis. The stability analysis predicts that 3D transition is via a synchronous instability of the steady flows. A highly accurate global linear stability analysis of the flow was conducted with Reynolds number and bend opening ratio (ratio of bend width to inlet height) . This range of and captures both steady-state 2D flow solutions as well as the inception of unsteady 2D flow. For , the 2D base flow transitions from steady to unsteady at higher Reynolds number as increases. The stability analysis shows that at the onset of instability, the base flow becomes three-dimensionally unstable in two different modes, namely spanwise oscillating mode for , and spanwise synchronous mode for . The critical Reynolds number and the spanwise wavelength of perturbations increase as increases. For both the critical Reynolds for onset of unsteadiness and the spanwise wavelength decrease as increases. Finally, for , the critical Reynolds number and spanwise wavelength remain almost constant. The linear stability analysis also shows that the base flow becomes unstable to different 3D modes depending on the opening ratio. The modes are found to be localised near the reattachment point of the first recirculation bubble.
