Transient growth in Taylor-Couette flow [PDF]
Transient growth due to non-normality is investigated for the Taylor-Couette problem with counter-rotating cylinders as a function of aspect ratio eta and Reynolds number Re. For all Re < 500, transient growth is enhanced by curvature, i.e.

Transient Turbulence in Taylor-Couette Flow [PDF]
Recent studies have brought into question the view that at sufficiently high Reynolds number turbulence is an asymptotic state. We present the first direct observation of the decay of turbulent states in Taylor-Couette flow with lifetimes spanning five ...

An Analytical Solution for Unsteady Laminar Flow in Tubes with a Tapered Wall Thickness
Transient fluid flows through tubes are critical in such topics as water hammer, ram pumps and pipeline dynamics. While analytical solutions exist in the literature for simple geometries such as tapered and non-tapered tube diameters, one area that is ...

Identifying the best method for linearizing the nonlinear friction term to analyze the transient flow in pipeline systems [PDF]
To analyze transient flows, continuity and momentum equations must be solved. Due to the non-linear friction term in the momentum equation, numerical methods such as method of characteristics (MOC) are used to analyze the problem in thetime domain ...
