Simulation of flow between concentric rotating spheres. Part 1. Steady states
Axisymmetric spherical Couette flow between two concentric differentially rotating spheres is computed numerically as an initial-value problem. The time-independent spherical Couette flows with zero, one and two Taylor vortices computed in our simulations are found to be reflection-symmetric about the equator despite the fact that our pseudospectral numerical method did not impose these propert...
متن کاملNumerical Studies of Viscous Incompressible Flow between Two Rotating Concentric Spheres
The problem of determining the induced steady axially symmetric motion of an incompressible viscous fluid confined between two concentric spheres, with the outer sphere rotating with constant angular velocity and the inner sphere fixed, is numerically investigated for large Reynolds number. The governing Navier-Stokes equations expressed in terms of a stream function-vorticity formulation are r...
متن کاملTurbulent flow between counter-rotating concentric cylinders: a direct numerical simulation study
We report three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of the turbulent flow between counter-rotating concentric cylinders with a radius ratio 0.5. The innerand 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 muc...
متن کاملA Numerical Study of Flow and Heat Transfer Between Two Rotating Vertically Eccentric Spheres with Time- Dependent Angular Velocities
The transient motion and the heat transfer of a viscous incompressible flow contained between two vertically eccentric spheres maintained at different temperatures and rotating about a common axis with different angular velocities is numerically considered when the angular velocities are an arbitrary functions of time. The resulting flow pattern, temperature distribution, and heat transfer char...
متن کاملRotating concentric circular peakons
We study circularly symmetric solution behaviour of invariant manifolds of singular solutions of the partial differential equation EPDiff for geodesic flow of a pressureless fluid whose kinetic energy is the H 1 norm of the fluid velocity. These singular solutions describe interaction dynamics on lower-dimensional support sets, for example, curves, or filaments, of momentum in the plane. The 2 ...
