AbstractTaylor–Couette flow in a compressible perfect gas is studied. The onset of instability is examined as a function of the Reynolds numbers of the inner and outer cylinder, the Mach number of the flow and the Prandtl number of the gas. We focus on the case of a wide gap, with radius ratio 0.5. We find new modes of instability at high Prandtl number, which can allow oscillatory axisymmetric modes to onset first. We also find that onset can occur even when the angular momentum increases outwards, so that the classical Rayleigh criterion can be violated in the compressible case. We have also considered the case of counter-rotating cylinders, where the $\def \xmlpi #1{}\def \mathsfbi #1{\boldsymbol {\mathsf {#1}}}\let \le =\leqslant \let \leq =\leqslant \let \ge =\geqslant \let \geq =\geqslant \def \Pr {\mathit {Pr}}\def \Fr {\mathit {Fr}}\def \Rey {\mathit {Re}}m=0$ and $m=1$ modes can onset simultaneously to give a codimension 2 bifurcation, leading to the formation of complex flow patterns. In compressible flow we also find codimension 3 points. The Mach number and the critical inner and outer Reynolds numbers can be adjusted so that the two neutral curves for the $m=0$ and $m=1$ modes touch rather than cross. Complex codimension 3 points occur more readily in the compressible case than in the Boussinesq case, and they are expected to lead to a rich nonlinear behaviour.

The flow between two concentric cylinders with the inner one rotating and with an imposed radial temperature gradient is studied using digital particle image velocimetry (DPIV) method. Four models of the outer cylinder without and with different numbers of slits (6, 9 and 18) are considered, and the radius ratio and aspect ratio of each models were 0.825 and 48, respectively. The flow regime in the Taylor-Couette flow was studied by increasing the Reynolds number. The results showed that smaller number of slits has no obvious effect on the transition process, which only change the shape of the vortex, and the transition to turbulent Taylor vortex is accelerated as the number of slit increases in both isothermal and non-isothermal conditions. It is also shown that the presence of temperature gradient increased the flow instability obviously as the Froude number larger than 0.0045.
