Angular momentum transport in turbulent flow between independently rotating cylinders.
We present measurements of the angular momentum flux (torque) in Taylor-Couette flow of water between independently rotating cylinders for all regions of the (Ω1, Ω2) parameter space at high Reynolds numbers, where Ω1 (Ω2) is the inner (outer) cylinder angular velocity. We find that the Rossby number Ro = (Ω1 - Ω2)/Ω2 fully determines the state and torque G as compared to G(Ro = ∞) ≡ G∞. The ra...
متن کاملAngular Momentum Transport in Particle and Fluid Disks
We examine the angular momentum transport properties of disks composed of macroscopic particles whose velocity dispersions are externally enhanced (“stirred”). Our simple Boltzmann equation model serves as an analogy for unmagnetized fluid disks in which turbulence may be driven by thermal convection. We show that interparticle collisions in particle disks play the same role as fluctuating pres...
متن کاملTurbulence - driven angular momentum transport in modulated Kepler flows
The velocity fluctuations in a spherical shell arising from sinusoidal perturbations of a Keplerian shear flow with a free amplitude parameter ε are studied numerically by means of fully 3D nonlinear simulations. The investigations are performed at high Reynolds numbers, i.e. 3000 < Re < 5000. We find Taylor-Proudman columns of large eddies parallel to the rotation axis for sufficiently strong ...
متن کاملAngular momentum conservation for uniformly expanding flows
Angular momentum has recently been defined as a surface integral involving an axial vector and a twist 1-form, which measures the twisting around of space-time due to a rotating mass. The axial vector is chosen to be a transverse, divergence-free, coordinate vector, which is compatible with any initial choice of axis and integral curves. Then a conservation equation expresses rate of change of ...
متن کاملMhd Simulations of Disk-magnetized Star Interactions in Quiescent Regime: Funnel Flows and Angular Momentum Transport
Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations have been used to study disk accretion to a rotating magnetized star with an aligned dipole moment. Quiescent initial conditions were developed in order to avoid the fast initial evolution seen in earlier studies. A set of simulations was performed for different stellar magnetic moments and rotation rates. Simulations have shown that the disk structure is s...
