Transient turbulence in Taylor-Couette flow.
Recent studies have brought into question the view that at sufficiently high Reynolds number turbulence is an asymptotic state. We present direct observation of the decay of turbulent states in Taylor-Couette flow with lifetimes spanning five orders of magnitude. We also show that there is a regime where Taylor-Couette flow shares many of the decay characteristics observed in other shear flows,...
متن کاملOscillating Taylor-Couette Flow
A flow transition in a coaxial rotating cylinder with only inner cylinder rotation was investigated using ultrasonic Doppler method for a wide range of Reynolds number up to 40 times critical Reynolds number (Rc). By analysing spatio-temporal velocity profiles, excitation functions of various transition modes such as wavy and modulated wavy modes were obtained using space-time Fourier expansion...
متن کاملUltimate turbulent Taylor-Couette flow.
The flow structure of strongly turbulent Taylor-Couette flow with Reynolds numbers up to Re(i)=2×10(6) of the inner cylinder is experimentally examined with high-speed particle image velocimetry (PIV). The wind Reynolds numbers Re(w) of the turbulent Taylor-vortex flow is found to scale as Re(w)∝Ta(1/2), exactly as predicted by Grossmann and Lohse [Phys. Fluids 23, 045108 (2011).] for the ultim...
متن کاملLayer Formation in Stratified Taylor–Couette Flow
A new set of high Reynolds number experiments (Re = riΩi∆r ν ∼ 10 − 10) are conducted to examine the layer formation observed in stratified Taylor–Couette flow. A wider range of radius ratios η = ri ro (where ri and ro are the radii of the inner and outer cylinder, respectively) than previously possible is explored to examine the universality of the dependence of layer height l on U N , where U...
متن کاملTurbulent Bursts in Couette-Taylor Flow.
We present a physical explanation of turbulent bursts in the flow between concentric, rotating cylinders (Couette-Taylor flow), based on fully resolved direct numerical calculations. The bursts are a temporal oscillation between a spatially laminar flow and turbulence, discovered experimentally by Hamill et al. The onset of turbulence is shown to be due to a linear instability of the spiral flo...
