The Taylor–Couette problem for a rarefied gas is studied numerically by the direct simulation Monte Carlo method. The gas is supposed to be contained in an annular domain, bounded by two coaxial rotating cylinders and top and bottom (specularly reflecting) boundaries, and the flow is assumed to be steady and axisymmetric. Special attention is focused on the effect of rotation of the outer cylin...

Analyses and measurements have shown anomalous behavior of ferrofluids in alternating and rotating magnetic fields, including flow reversals and negative magnetoviscosities as a function of magnetic field amplitude and frequency. These experiments measure the ferrofluid viscous torque on a rotating cylinder while varying the magnetic field amplitude and frequency, thereby confirming the strong ...

In this paper, classical thin shell theory is used to analyze vibration and critical speed of simply supported rotating orthotropic cylindrical shell. The effects of centrifugal and Coriolis forces due to the rotation are considered in the present for‌mulation.. In addition, axial load is applied on cylinder as a ratio of critical buckling load. Finally the effects of orthotropic ratio, materia...

This study used a NACA 6409 smooth wing section. Its performance is compared to an enhanced design incorporating revolving cylinder on the upper airfoil surface. The boundary conditions for present work were Reynolds (105), and attack angles (0,2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16). A turbulence model was developed (SST K-), one of aerodynamics models. well-suited sensing flow near wall. evaluated at three posi...
