This book describes the research that has been done on the problems of Benard convection- as well as its modern offspring, the Rayleigh-Benard problem-and Taylor vortices. Benard …

This study is a survey of experiments on the flow near rotating bodies. The bodies discussed are bodies of revolution, such as spheres, disks, cylinders and cones. The flow and the …
The problem of steady natural convection in a bottom-heated semi-elliptical enclosure has been investigated numerically for a wide range of geometric and flow configurations using …

The spiralling flow within a curved tube of rectangular cross-section normally forms two distinct cells in the plane of the cross-section, but a transition to a different, four-cell flow is …

We investigate the dynamical and statistical features of turbulent Taylor–Couette flow (for a radius ratio 0.5) through three-dimensional direct numerical simulations (DNS) at Reynolds …
Flow visualization and particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements are used to unravel the pattern transition and velocity field in the Taylor–Couette flow (TCF) of neutrally buoyant …
The Maxwell equations in the MHD limit in heterogeneous axisymmetric domains composed of conducting and non-conducting regions are solved by using a mixed Fourier/Lagrange …

A combined experimental and computational investigation of the flow between a rotating cylinder and a fixed enclosure is presented. The configuration considered is related to the …
