Addendum to "Two-fluid confined flow in a cylinder driven by a rotating endwall".

چکیده
In a recent paper [Phys. Rev. E 85, 016308 (2012)], we reported on numerical simulations of swirling two-phase flows in which for cases where the viscosity of the upper fluid is sufficiently smaller than that of the lower fluid, a small region of reversed flow is present on the interface. In this Brief Report, we show that the reported reversed flow is grid converged and comment further on its physical origin.

Characteristics of endwall and sidewall boundary layers in a rotating cylinder with a differentially rotating endwall
The flow in a rotating cylinder driven by the differential rotation of its top endwall is studied by numerically solving the time-dependent axisymmetric Navier–Stokes equations. When the differential rotation is small, the flow is well described in terms of similarity solutions of individual rotating disks of infinite radius. For larger differential rotations, whether the top is co-rotating or ...
متن کاملComplex dynamics in a short annular container with rotating bottom and inner cylinder
The nonlinear dynamics of the flow in a short annulus driven by the rotation of the inner cylinder and bottom endwall is considered. The shortness of the annulus enhances the role of mode competition. For aspect ratios greater than about 3, the flow dynamics are dominated by a centrifugal instability as the rotating inner cylinder imparts angular momentum to the adjacent fluid, resulting in a t...

متن کاملAxi-symmetric Stagnation–Point Flow and Heat Transfer Obliquely Impinging on a Rotating Circular Cylinder
Laminar stagnation flow, axi-symmetrically yet obliquely impinging on a rotating circular cylinder, as well as its heat transfer is formulated as an exact solution of the Navier-Stokes equations. Rotational velocity of the cylinder is time-dependent while the surface transpiration is uniform and steady. The impinging stream is composed of a rotational axial flow superposed onto irrotational rad...
متن کاملMathematical Modeling of Potential Flow over a Rotating Cylinder (RESEARCH NOTE)
Potential flow over rotating cylinder is usually solved by the singularity method. However,in this paper a mathematical solution is presented for this problem by direct solution of the Laplace’sequation. Flow over the cylinder was considered non-viscous. Neumann and Dirichlet boundaryconditions were used on the solid surfaces and in the infinity, respectively. Because of non-viscous flow,the La...
