Hydrodynamic 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 کاملNew type of magnetorotational instability in cylindrical taylor-couette flow.
We study the stability of cylindrical Taylor-Couette flow in the presence of combined axial and azimuthal magnetic fields, and show that adding an azimuthal field profoundly alters the previous results for purely axial fields. For small magnetic Prandtl numbers Pm, the critical Reynolds number Re(c) for the onset of the magnetorotational instability becomes independent of Pm, whereas for purely...
متن کاملInteraction of wavy cylindrical Couette flow with endwalls
The finite length of a Taylor–Couette cell introduces endwall effects that interact with the centrifugal instability and the subsequent wavy vortex flow. We investigate the interaction between the endwall Ekman boundary layers and the wavy vortices in a finite-length cavity via direct numerical simulation using a three-dimensional spectral method. To analyze the nature of the interaction betwee...
متن کاملNonaxisymmetric magnetorotational instabilities in cylindrical Taylor-Couette flow.
We study the stability of cylindrical Taylor-Couette flow in the presence of azimuthal magnetic fields, and show that one obtains nonaxisymmetric magnetorotational instabilities, having azimuthal wave number m=1. For Omega{o}/Omega{i} only slightly greater than the Rayleigh value (r{i}/r{o}){2}, the critical Reynolds and Hartmann numbers are Re{c} approximately 10{3} and Ha{c} approximately 10{...
