The Stability

Abstract The Taylor-Couette flow between two rotating coaxial cylinders remains an ideal tool for understanding the mechanism of the transition from laminar to turbulent regime in rotating flow for the scientific community. We present for different Taylor numbers a set of three-dimensional numerical investigations of the stability and transition from Couette flow to Taylor vortex regime of a viscous incompressible fluid (liquid sodium) between two concentric cylinders with the inner one rotating and the outer one at rest. We seek the onset of the first instability and we compare the obtained results for different velocity rates. We calculate the corresponding Taylor number in order to show its effect on flow patterns and pressure field.

In this chapter it is shown that solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations can be derived for steady, fully developed flow of a constant-viscosity Newtonian fluid through a cylindrical duct. Such a flow is known as a Poiseuille flow. For a pipe of circular cross section, the term Hagen-Poiseuille flow is used. Solutions are also derived for shear-driven flow within the annular space between two concentric cylinders or in the space between two parallel plates when there is relative tangential movement between the wetted surfaces, termed Couette flows. The concepts of wetted perimeter and hydraulic diameter are introduced. It is shown how the viscometer equations result from the concentric-cylinder solutions. The pressure-driven flow of generalised Newtonian fluids is also discussed.

This paper investigates the enhanced viscous behavior and heat transfer phenomenon of an unsteady two di-mensional, incompressible ionic-nano-liquid squeezing flow between two infinite parallel concentric cylinders. To analyze heat transfer ability, three different type nanoparticles such as Copper, Aluminum [Formula: see text], and Titanium oxide [Formula: see text] of volume fraction ranging from 0.1 to 0.7 nm, are added to the ionic liquid in turns. The Brinkman model of viscosity and Maxwell-Garnets model of thermal conductivity for nano particles are adopted. Further, Heat source [Formula: see text], is applied between the concentric cylinders. The physical phenomenon is transformed into a system of partial differential equations by modified Navier-Stokes equation, Poisson equation, Nernst-Plank equation, and energy equation. The system of nonlinear partial differential equations, is converted to a system of coupled ordinary differential equations by opting suitable transformations. Solution of the system of coupled ordinary differential equations is carried out by parametric continuation (PC) and BVP4c matlab based numerical methods. Effects of squeeze number ( S), volume fraction [Formula: see text], Prandtle number (Pr), Schmidt number [Formula: see text], and heat source [Formula: see text] on nano-ionicliquid flow, ions concentration distribution, heat transfer rate and other physical quantities of interest are tabulated, graphed, and discussed. It is found that [Formula: see text] and Cu as nanosolid, show almost the same enhancement in heat transfer rate for Pr = 0.2, 0.4, 0.6.

We study the electromagnetic Casimir interaction energy between two parallel concentric cylinders in [Formula: see text]-dimensional Minkowski space–time for different combinations of perfectly conducting boundary condition and infinitely permeable boundary condition. We consider two cases where one cylinder is outside each other and where one is inside the other. By solving the equation of motion and computing the TGTG formulas, explicit formulas for the Casimir interaction energy can be derived and asymptotic behavior of the Casimir interaction energy in the nanoregime is calculated by using perturbation technique. We computed the interaction energy analytically up to next-to-leading order term.

Visual Observations

Critical speeds for the onset of Taylor vortices and for the later development of wavy vortices have been determined from torque measurements and visual observations on concentric cylinders of radius ratios R1/R2 = 0·894–0·954 for a range of values of the clearance c and length L: c/R1 = 0·0478–0·119 and L/c = 1–107. Effectively zero variation of the Taylor critical speed with annulus length was observed. The speed at the onset of wavy vortices was found to increase considerably as the annulus length was reduced and theoretical predictions are realistic only for L/c values exceeding say 40. The results were similar for all four clearance ratios examined. Preliminary measurements on eccentrically positioned cylinders with c/R1 = 0·119 showed corresponding effects.

High Reynolds

We report three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of the turbulent flow between counter-rotating concentric cylinders with a radius ratio 0.5. The inner- and outer-cylinder Reynolds numbers have the same magnitude, which ranges from 500 to 4000 in the simulations. We show that with the increase of Reynolds number, the prevailing structures in the flow are azimuthal vortices with scales much smaller than the cylinder gap. At high Reynolds numbers, while the instantaneous small-scale vortices permeate the entire domain, the large-scale Taylor vortex motions manifested by the time-averaged field do not penetrate a layer of fluid near the outer cylinder. Comparisons between the standard Taylor–Couette system (rotating inner cylinder, fixed outer cylinder) and the counter-rotating system demonstrate the profound effects of the Coriolis force on the mean flow and other statistical quantities. The dynamical and statistical features of the flow have been investigated in detail.
