A statistical study of spots in torsional Couette flow [PDF]
Journal of Engineering Mathematics, 2006 This article presents some results on the statistical behavior of localized structures - called "spots" - that propagate in the flow between a rotating and a stationary disc when those are very close one to the other. Under these conditions the rotating disc flow belongs to the Couette flow family and is called the torsional Couette flow.

Processing the Vane Shear Flow Data from Couette Analogy
Applied Rheology, 2008 A new procedure is described to convert the vane torque and rotational velocity data into shear stress vs shear rate relationships. The basis of the procedure consists in considering locally the sheared material as a Bingham fluid and computing a ...

THE TRANSITION TO TURBULENCE OF THE TORSIONAL COUETTE FLOW [PDF]
, 2006 This work is devoted to the experimental study of the transition to turbulence of a flow confined in a narrow gap between a rotating and a stationary disk. When the fluid layer thickness is of the same order of magnitude as the boundary layer depth, the azimuthal velocity axial gradient is nearly constant and this rotating disk flow is a torsional ...

A comparative study on the effect of disks geometrical features on the drag torque of a wet friction clutch [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2020 In recent years, the need for highly efficient automatic and semiautomatic powertrains has led to the wide use of wet friction clutches as power transmission systems.

Effects of wall compliance on the laminar–turbulent transition of torsional Couette flow [PDF]
Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2003 Torsional Couette flow between a rotating disk and a stationary wall is studied experimentally. The surface of the disk is either rigid or covered with a compliant coating. The influence of wall compliance on characteristic flow instabilities and on the laminar–turbulent flow transition is investigated.
