Secondary circulations in rotating-flow boundary layers
The rotating-flow boundary layer is a special case of the more general threedimensional boundary layer in which the pressure gradient imposed by the outer flow (above the boundary layer) is not in the same direction as the outer flow. The rotating-flow boundary layer thus has motion that is transverse to the streamlines of the outer flow, that is, there is a secondary circulation to the primary...
متن کاملBoundary Layers and Heat Transfer on a Rotating Rough Disk
The study of flow and heat transfer over rotating circular disks is of great practical importance in understanding the cooling of rotatory machinery such as turbines, electric motors and design and manufacturing of computer disk drives. This paper presents an analysis of the flow and heat transfer over a heated infinite permeable rough disk. Boundary-layer approximation reduces the elliptic Nav...

متن کاملSecondary circulations in Holmboe waves
A sequence of direct simulations is used to study mechanisms for the growth of secondary circulations and turbulence in stratified shear flows. Five cases are examined, of which four deliver Holmboe waves as the primary instability and the fifth generates Kelvin-Helmholtz billows. Secondary circulations range in strength from weak, laminar motions to turbulence that destroys the parent wave. Pr...
متن کاملInstability Associated Baroclinic Critical Layers in Rotating Stratified Shear Flow
The notion of over-reflection has been used to rationalize the linear instability of shear flows that are directed and sheared in a horizontal plane but stratified and subject to rotation in the vertical. In the linear stability analysis of these types of flows, two types of critical levels may appear that translate to singular points in the corresponding differential eigenvalue problem. The fi...
