We propose an efficient and spectrally accurate numerical method for computing vortex lattice structures in fast rotating Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) with strongly repulsive interactions. The key ingredients of the method is to discretize the normalized gradient flow under rotational frame by Fourier spectral method in space and by backward Euler method in time. Different vortex lattice st...

We present a numerical study of axisymmetric flow in a rotating annulus in which local thermal forcing, via a heated annular ring on the outside of the base and a cooled circular disk in the centre of the top surface, drives convection. This new configuration is a variant of the classical thermally-driven annulus, where uniform heating and cooling are applied through the outer and inner sidewal...

2014 Using a simple continuum model for a paramagnetic fluid we analyze a simple shearing flow and parallel flow through a pipe. We also examine the possibility of maintaining a steady circular flow in a circular cylinder by rotating a homogeneous magnetic field.

The flow of a viscous, incompressible fluid between two eccentric rotating porous cylinders with suction/injection at both the cylinders, for very small clearance ratio is studied. The expressions for various flow characteristics are obtained using perturbation analysis. Streamlines and pressure plots are shown graphically for various values of flow parameters and discussed. 2000 Mathematics Su...

Thermal fluctuations significantly affect the behavior of microscale systems rotating in shear flow, such as microvortexes, microbubbles, rotating micromotors, microactuators and other elements of lab-on-a-chip devices. The influence of Brownian torque on the motion of individual magnetic microparticles in a rotating magnetic field is experimentally determined using optical tweezers. Rotational...

Existing experimental and theoretical studies are discussed which lead to the clear hypothesis of a hitherto unidentified convective instability mode that dominates within the boundary-layer flow over slender rotating cones. The mode manifests as Görtlertype counter-rotating spiral vortices, indicative of a centrifugal mechanism. Although a formulation consistent with the classic rotating-disk ...

By means of setting inlet pre-rotator ,the inlet and exit flow field of the diagonal flow impeller with exit guide volute have been measured with 5 holes probe, in different flow conditions, and in the conditions of positive and negative pre-rotating. The expe1iment results are compared with that of without the pre-rotator.

Centrifugal pumps are required to sustain a stable operation of the system they support under all operating conditions. Minor modifications of the surfaces defining the pump’s water passage can influence the tendency to unstable system operation significantly. The action of such modifications on the flow are yet not fully understood, leading to costly trial and error approaches in the solution ...

The flow of dry granular material in a half-filled rotating drum is studied. The thickness of the flowing zone is measured for several rotation speeds, drum sizes and beads sizes (size ratio between drum and beads ranging from 47 to 7400). Varying the rotation speed, a scaling law linking mean velocity vs. thickness of the flow, v approximately h(m), is deduced for each couple (beads, drum). Th...
