The cylindrical flow around a cylinder is present in several engineering problems. Moreover, the pattern rotating more complex than that cylinder. In this paper, at different speed ratios investigated by means of large-eddy simulations. particular, lift coefficient CL, drag CD, lift-to-drag ratio k, Strouhal number St, field each section, and three-dimensional eddy structure are compared ratios...

In this paper, a semi-analytical solution for magneto-thermo-elastic problem in an axisymmetric functionally graded (FG) hollow rotating disk with constant thickness placed in uniform magnetic and thermal fields with heat convection from disk’s surfaces is presented. Solution for stresses and perturbation of magnetic field vector in a thin FG rotating disk is determined using infinitesimal theo...

The recent discovery of rotating radio transients and the quasi-periodicity of pulsar activity in the radio pulsar PSR B1931+24 has challenged the conventional theory of radio pulsar emission. Here we suggest that these phenomena could be due to the interaction between the neutron star magnetosphere and the surrounding debris disk. The pattern of pulsar emission depends on whether the disk can ...

Turbulence studies were made in the wake of a rotating circular cylinder in a uniform free stream. The interest was to examine the turbulence properties at the suppression of periodicity in vortex formation process. An experimental study of the turbulent near wake of a rotating circular cylinder was made at a Reynolds number of 9000 for velocity ratios, λ between 0 and 2.7. Hot-wire anemometry ...

The motion of tracer particles used for visualization in a steady axisymmetric swirling flow in a closed rotating disk–cylinder system is studied numerically. It is assumed that there exists a density mismatch between the particles and the fluid. It is shown that such a slight density mismatch leads to a deviation of the particle motion from steady axisymmetric streamlines, which in its turn yi...

Three-dimensional instability of axisymmetric flow in a rotating disk–cylinder configuration is studied numerically for the case of low cylinders with the height/radius aspect ratio varying between 1 and 0.1. A complete stability diagram for the transition from steady axisymmetric to oscillatory threedimensional flow regime is reported. A good agreement with the experimental results is obtained...

We consider the nature of thermally stratified flow in a closed cylinder rotating about the direction of gravity under conditions appropriate for terrestrial laboratory experiments. Motion is driven by centrifugal buoyancy, with outflow near the cold disk and inflow near the hot disk. Although similarity solutions for the infinite disk open-geometry problem exist and are easily found, even anal...

The flow in an enclosed rotating cylinder with a stationary lower end wall is investigated numerically. For fast rotation rates, the flow in the interior is primarily in the azimuthal direction, with an angular momentum distribution very close to that corresponding to solid-body rotation for about the inner-half radius. The differential rotation sets up a large-scale circulation that is primari...

We consider the centrifugal acceleration of charged test particles by rotating magnetospheres which are widely believed to be responsible for the relativistic jet phenomenon in active galactic nuclei (AGN). Based on an analysis of forces the equation for the radial accelerated motion is derived and an analytical solution presented under the assumption of an idealized spherical magnetosphere. We...

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...
