Oscillating Taylor-Couette Flow
A flow transition in a coaxial rotating cylinder with only inner cylinder rotation was investigated using ultrasonic Doppler method for a wide range of Reynolds number up to 40 times critical Reynolds number (Rc). By analysing spatio-temporal velocity profiles, excitation functions of various transition modes such as wavy and modulated wavy modes were obtained using space-time Fourier expansion...
متن کاملA Taylor-Couette Dynamo
Recent experiments have shown that it is possible to study a fundamental astrophysical process such as dynamo action in controlled laboratory conditions using simple MHD flows. In this paper we explore the possibility that Taylor-Couette flow, already proposed as a model of the magneto-rotational instability of accretion discs, can sustain generation of magnetic field. Firstly, by solving the k...
متن کاملLaminar Spirals in the Outer Stationary Cylinder Couette-Taylor System
We present numerical simulations to demonstrate the existence of laminar spiral flows between both finite and infinite length concentric cylinders and finite truncated cones where only the inner wall rotates. The velocities and pressure are calculated by a spectral element/Fourier method. Different gap ratios are investigated. Convergence of the numerical results is shown with reference to flow...
متن کاملTransition from the Couette-Taylor system to the plane Couette system.
We discuss the flow between concentric rotating cylinders in the limit of large radii where the system approaches plane Couette flow. We discuss how in this limit the linear instability that leads to the formation of Taylor vortices is lost and how the character of the transition approaches that of planar shear flows. In particular, a parameter regime is identified where fractal distributions o...
متن کاملUltimate turbulent Taylor-Couette flow.
The flow structure of strongly turbulent Taylor-Couette flow with Reynolds numbers up to Re(i)=2×10(6) of the inner cylinder is experimentally examined with high-speed particle image velocimetry (PIV). The wind Reynolds numbers Re(w) of the turbulent Taylor-vortex flow is found to scale as Re(w)∝Ta(1/2), exactly as predicted by Grossmann and Lohse [Phys. Fluids 23, 045108 (2011).] for the ultim...
