Rotating Thermal Flows in Natural and Industrial Processes provides the reader with a
systematic description of the different types of thermal convection and flow instabilities in …

The paper critically reviews the current state of the art in flow inside sidewall gaps of
hydraulic pumps and turbines. It describes the consequences of the presence of this type of …

The flow induced by rotating discs has attracted some of the greatest minds in fluid dynamics
like von Kármán and Batchelor, and still is a vigorously active research area. In comparison …

The flow produced in an enclosed cylinder of height-to-radius ratio of two by the counter-
rotation of the top and bottom disks is numerically investigated. When the Reynolds number …

Using direct numerical simulations, we show that swirling electrovortex flows significantly
enhance the mixing of the bottom layer alloy in liquid metal batteries during discharge. By …

Hydro-viscous drive (HVD) plays a significant role in smoothly transferring torque and
flexibly regulating the velocity of the disks. By hydro-viscous drive, we mean that the viscous …

The shear layer instability in the flow between two counter-rotating disks enclosed by a
cylinder is investigated experimentally and numerically, for radius-to-height ratio between 2 …

Three-dimensional steady combined free and forced convective magnetohydrodynamic
(MHD) flow are simulated in a cylindrical cavity filled with a liquid metal and submitted to a …

The three-dimensional linear instability of axisymmetric flow between exactly counter-
rotating disks is studied numerically. The dynamics are governed by two parameters, the …

Nous étudions ici expérimentalement l'écoulement de von Kármán, produit dans un cylindre
entre deux turbines coaxiales. Nous nous plaçons plus particulièrement en régime de …
