Observations of the stratorotational instability in rotating concentric cylinders
We study the stability of density stratified flow between corotating vertical cylinders with rotation rates o < i and radius ratio ri/ro = 0.877, where subscripts o and i refer to the outer and inner cylinders. Just as in stellar and planetary accretion disks, the flow has rotation, anticyclonic shear, and a stabilizing density gradient parallel to the rotation axis. The primary instability of ...
متن کاملMagnetohydrodynamic Flow in Horizontal Concentric Cylinders
This article presents the exact solutions of the velocity and temperature fields for a steady fully developed magnetohydrodynamic flow of a viscous incompressible and electrically conducting fluid between two horizontal concentric cylinders. Our study focuses on the influence of the Hartmann number, Brinkman number, Péclet number and inner radius on the fluid temperature field, entropy generati...
متن کاملStratorotational instability in MHD Taylor-Couette flows
Aims. The stability of dissipative Taylor-Couette flows with an axial stable density stratification and a prescribed azimuthal magnetic field is considered. Methods. Global nonaxisymmetric solutions of the linearized MHD equations with toroidal magnetic field, axial density stratification and differential rotation are found for both insulating and conducting cylinder walls. Results. Flat rotati...
متن کاملRotating concentric circular peakons
We study circularly symmetric solution behaviour of invariant manifolds of singular solutions of the partial differential equation EPDiff for geodesic flow of a pressureless fluid whose kinetic energy is the H 1 norm of the fluid velocity. These singular solutions describe interaction dynamics on lower-dimensional support sets, for example, curves, or filaments, of momentum in the plane. The 2 ...
متن کاملTurbulent flow between counter-rotating concentric cylinders: a direct numerical simulation study
We report three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of the turbulent flow between counter-rotating concentric cylinders with a radius ratio 0.5. The innerand outer-cylinder Reynolds numbers have the same magnitude, which ranges from 500 to 4000 in the simulations. We show that with the increase of Reynolds number, the prevailing structures in the flow are azimuthal vortices with scales muc...
