Stability Analysis of Perturbed Plane Couette Flow
Plane Couette ow perturbed by a spanwise oriented ribbon, similar to a con guration investigated experimentally at CEA-Saclay, is investigated numerically using a spectral-element code. 2D steady states are computed for the perturbed con guration; these di er from the unperturbed ows mainly by a region of counter-circulation surrounding the ribbon. The 2D steady ow loses stability to 3D eigenmo...
متن کاملStability of Taylor-Couette Flow with Axial Flow
This paper describes an investigation, which uses a torquemeasurement technique, of effects of axial flow on the stability of Taylor-Couette flow. Two radius ratios, 0.846 and 0.956, are used. The preliminary results show that the critical Taylor number for the onset of Taylor vortices increases monotonically with the Reynolds number of the axial flow and asymptotes to a constant value. Althoug...
متن کاملStability of axisymmetric Taylor-Couette flow in hydromagnetics.
The linear marginal instability of an axisymmetric magnetohydrodynamics Taylor-Couette flow of infinite vertical extension is considered. We are only interested in those vertical wave numbers for which the characteristic Reynolds number is minimum. For hydrodynamically unstable flows minimum Reynolds numbers exist even without a magnetic field, but there are also solutions with smaller characte...
متن کاملHydrodynamic stability of a suspension in cylindrical Couette flow
A linear stability analysis was carried out for a dilute suspension of rigid spherical particles in cylindrical Couette flow. The perturbation equations for both the continuous fluid phase and the discontinuous particle phase were decomposed into normal modes resulting in an eigenvalue problem that was solved numerically. At a given radius ratio, the theoretical critical Taylor number at which ...
متن کاملThe stability of Couette flow in a toroidal magnetic field
The stability of the hydromagnetic Couette flow is investigated when a constant current is applied along the axis of the cylinders. It is shown that if the resulting toroidal magnetic field depends only on this current, no linear instability to axisymmetric disturbances is possible. c © 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
