The Ekman-Hartmann layer in MHD Taylor-Couette flow

open access: yes, 2007
We study magnetic effects induced by rigidly rotating plates enclosing a cylindrical MHD Taylor-Couette flow at the finite aspect ratio $H/D=10$. The fluid confined between the cylinders is assumed to be liquid metal characterized by small magnetic ...

Design Considerations and Flow Characteristics for Couette-Type Blood-Shear Devices

open access: yesFluids
Cardiovascular prosthetic devices, stents, prosthetic valves, heart-assist pumps, etc., operate in a wide regime of flows characterized by fluid dynamic flow structures, laminar and turbulent flows, unsteady flow patterns, vortices, and other flow ...

Dynamic Transition and Pattern Formation in Taylor Problem

open access: yes, 2010
The main objective of this article is to study both dynamic and structural transitions of the Taylor-Couette flow, using the dynamic transition theory and geometric theory of incompressible flows developed recently by the authors.

Axial Magnetic Field Effect on Taylor-Couette Flow

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2015
This study is interested in the effect of an axial magnetic field imposed on incompressible flow of electrically conductive fluid between two horizontal coaxial cylinders. The imposed magnetic field is assumed uniform and constant.

Non-axisymmetric instability of shear-banded Taylor-Couette flow

open access: yes, 2012
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.

DNS Study of the Turbulent Taylor-Vortex Flow on a Ribbed Inner Cylinder

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2013
Turbulent Taylor-vortex flows over regularly spaced square ribs mounted on a rotating inner cylinder surface were investigated using direct numerical simulations (DNSs) for a Reynolds number of 3200 (based on the inner-wall velocity and the gap width ...

Finite length effects in Taylor-Couette flow [PDF]

open access: yes
Axisymmetric numerical solutions of the unsteady Navier-Stokes equations for flow between concentric rotating cyclinders of finite length are obtained by a spectral collocation method.

THE INFLUENCE OF CHARACTERISTIC PARAMETERS ON THE VORTEX STRUCTURE OF THE TAYLOR-COUETTE FLOW OF COMPRESSIBLE GAS

open access: yesНаучный вестник МГТУ ГА, 2016
The Couette-Taylor flow of compressible gas at high Reynolds numbers is studied. Problem statement is formulated on the basis of the differential equation system (the Navier-Stockes equations) for compressible gas in cylindrical coordinates. On the basis

Feigenbaum universality in subcritical Taylor–Couette flow

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics
Feigenbaum universality is shown to occur in subcritical shear flows. Our testing ground is the counter-rotation regime of the Taylor–Couette flow, where numerical calculations are performed within a small periodic domain. The accurate computation of up to the seventh period-doubling bifurcation, assisted by a purposely defined Poincaré section, has ...
