Nonlinear Stability of Bifurcating Front Solutions for the Taylor- Couette Problem
We consider the Taylor-Couette problem in an infinitely extended cylindrical domain. There exist modulated front solutions which describe the spreading of the stable Taylor vortices into the region of the unstable Couette flow. These transient solutions have the form of a front-like envelope advancing in the laboratory frame and leaving behind the stationary, spatially periodic Taylor vortices....
متن کاملModulated rotating waves in O(2) mode interactions
The interaction of steady-state and Hopf bifurcations in the presence of O(2) symmetry generically gives a secondary Hopf bifurcation to a family of 2-tori, from the primary rotating wave branch. We present explicit formulas for the coefficients which determine the direction of bifurcation and the stability of the 2-tori. These formulas show that the tori are determined by third-degree terms in...
متن کاملEnergy distribution in nonaxisymmetric magnetic Taylor-Couette flow
Azimuthal magnetorotational instability is a mechanism that generates nonaxisymmetric field pattern. Nonlinear simulations in an infinite Taylor-Couette system with current-free external field show, that not only the linearly unstable mode m = 1 appears, but also an inverse cascade transporting energy into the axisymmetric field is possible. By varying the Reynolds number of the flow and the Ha...
متن کاملInertial particle motion in a Taylor Couette rotating filter
In rotating filtration, which is based on supercritical cylindrical Couette flow with a rotating porous inner cylinder, the motion of particles in the suspension depends on both centrifugal sedimentation and transport due to the vortical motion of Taylor vortices. We have simulated the motion of dilute, rigid, spherical particles in Taylor Couette flow using computational particle tracking in a...
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...
