Bifurcation phenomena in Taylor–Couette flow in a very short annulus with radial through-flow [PDF]
In this study, the non-linear dynamics of Taylor–Couette flow in a very small-aspect-ratio wide-gap annulus in a counter-rotating regime under the influence of radial through-flow are investigated by solving its full three-dimensional Navier-Stokes ...

Novel Schemes of No-Slip Boundary Conditions for the Discrete Unified Gas Kinetic Scheme Based on the Moment Constraints [PDF]
The boundary conditions are crucial for numerical methods. This study aims to contribute to this growing area of research by exploring boundary conditions for the discrete unified gas kinetic scheme (DUGKS).

Measuring non-extensitivity parameters in a turbulent Couette-Taylor flow [PDF]
We investigate probability density functions of velocity differences at different distances r measured in a Couette-Taylor flow for a range of Reynolds numbers Re. There is good agreement with the predictions of a theoretical model based on non-extensive

Optimal Taylor-Couette flow: direct numerical simulations [PDF]
We numerically simulate turbulent Taylor-Couette flow for independently rotating inner and outer cylinders, focusing on the analogy with turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard flow.

Hydromagnetic Taylor--Couette flow: wavy modes [PDF]
We investigate magnetic Taylor--Couette flow in the presence of an imposed axial magnetic field. First we calculate nonlinear steady axisymmetric solutions and determine how their strength depends on the applied magnetic field.

Second-Order Phase Transition in Counter-Rotating Taylor–Couette Flow Experiment [PDF]
In many basic shear flows, such as pipe, Couette, and channel flow, turbulence does not arise from an instability of the laminar state, and both dynamical states co-exist.

Transient generalized Taylor-Couette flow: a semi-analytical approach [PDF]
Semi-analytical solution of transient generalized Taylor-Couette flow of a viscous, incompressible fluid between the gaps of concentric rotating cylinders under applied azimuthal pressure gradient ispresented.

Non-axisymmetric instability of shear-banded Taylor-Couette flow [PDF]
Recent experiments show that shear-banded flows of semi-dilute worm-like micelles in Taylor-Couette geometry exhibit a flow instability in the form of Taylor-like vortices.

Multiplicity of states in Taylor-Couette flow of a dense granular gas [PDF]
Molecular dynamics simulations with a purely repulsive Lennard-Jones potential and a normal damping force is used to simulate the granular flow in the annular region between two differentially-rotating cylinders, called the Taylor-Couette flow.
