Rapidly rotating cylinder flow with an oscillating sidewall

Lopez, Juan M., and Marques, F.



(a) Azimuthal velocity v (b) Azimuthal vorticity η

Contours of the azimuthal velocity and vorticity for Ω=105, Re=100, Γ=2 and F=0.7071068 (there are ten contours in the ranges [-15,15] for v, and [-500,500] for η), together with vectors of the velocity field in the (r,z) plane (only one vector is drawn at the sidewall indicating its velocity). Corresponding to Figure 4.

(a) Isosurfaces of the nonaxisymmetric contributions to the azimuthal vorticity at levels η3D=±1000 for the modulated rotatingwave state at Ω=103, Γ=2, Re=2000, and F=0.7071068.

(b) Contours of the azimuthal vorticity η for the modulated rotating wave state at Ω=1000, Γ=2, Re=2000, and F=0.7071068. There are 24 quadratically spaced contour levels in the range [−50000,50000].

(c) Contours of η for all the computed cases in Figure 14 in the paper; Ω=1000, Γ=2, Re=100, and F variyng from 0.01 to 1 in steps of 0.01.
