This work applies our recent theory for stress-gradient-induced migration to Taylor–Couette flow, and has for the first time confirmed the theory using Brownian dynamics simulations.

We solve the nonlinear two-fluid Hall–Vinen–Bekharevich–Khalatnikov equations of motion of helium II for the first time and investigate the configuration of quantized vortex lines in Taylor–Couette flow. The results are interpreted in terms of quantities which can be observed by measuring the attenuation of second sound. Comparison is made with existing experimental results.

Molecular dynamics simulations with a purely repulsive Lennard-Jones potential and a normal damping force is used to simulate the granular flow in the annular region between two differentially-rotating cylinders, called the Taylor-Couette flow. The flow transition from the azimuthally-invariant Circular Couette flow (CCF) to the Taylor-vortex flow (TVF) is studied by increasing the rotation rate (ωi) of the inner cylinder, with the outer cylinder being kept stationary. Multiplicity of states, highlighting the hysteretic nature of the “CCF ↔ TVF” transition, is observed over a wide range of rotation rates. The onset of Taylor vortices is quantified in terms of the maximum radial velocity and the net circulation per vortex.
