Velocity field for Taylor–Couette flow with an axial flow

The flow in the gap between an inner rotating cylinder concentric with an outer stationary cylinder with an imposed pressure-driven axial flow was studied experimentally using particle image velocimetry ~PIV! in a meridional plane of the annulus. The radius ratio was h50.83 and the aspect ratio was G547. Velocity vector fields for nonwavy toroidal and helical vortices show the axial flow windin...

Hydraulic Resistance and Flow Pattern at Design and Off Design Flow Rates Among Axial Flow Machines

In an axial flow machine, fluids flow condition, that is flow pattern in a rotating flow passage changes its form and magnitude by the hydraulic resistance to the fluid flow in flow passage. Effect of centrifugal force becomes stronger with the increase of hydraulic resistance, and the flow rate becomes smaller. And, in the comparison of fluids flow condition among different axial flow machines...
