Taylor-Couette flow, the flow between two coaxial co-or counter-rotating cylinders, is one of
the paradigmatic systems in the physics of fluids. The (dimensionless) control parameters …

A concise review is given of astrophysically motivated experimental and theoretical research
on Taylor–Couette flow. The flows of interest rotate differentially with the inner cylinder faster …

We report a laboratory study of the transport of angular momentum by a turbulent flow of an
electrically conducting fluid confined in a thin disk. When the electromagnetic force applied …

Most flows in nature and engineering are turbulent because of their large velocities and
spatial scales. Laboratory experiments on rotating quasi-Keplerian flows, for which the …

The magnetorotational instability (MRI) is thought to be a powerful source of turbulence and
momentum transport in astrophysical accretion discs, but obtaining observational evidence …

Turbulent Taylor–Couette flow between two concentric independently rotating cylinders with
a radius ratio of. The Nusselt number decreases for stronger counter-rotation until a …

We present fluid velocity measurements in a modified Taylor-Couette device operated in the
quasi-Keplerian regime, where it is observed that nearly ideal flows exhibit self-similarity …

A Taylor–Couette setup with radial heating is considered where a Boussinesq fluid is
sheared in the annular region between two concentric, independently rotating cylinders …

We report a direct-numerical-simulation study of the Taylor–Couette flow in the quasi-
Keplerian regime at shear Reynolds numbers up to O (10 5)⁠. Quasi-Keplerian rotating flow …

We study the stability of density stratified flow between corotating vertical cylinders with
rotation rates Ω o< Ω i and radius ratio ri/ro= 0.877, where subscripts o and i refer to the …
