Full perturbation solution for the flow in a rotated torus

Fluid Dynamics 2009-11-13 v2

Abstract

We present a perturbation solution for a pressure-driven fluid flow in a rotating toroidal channel. The analysis shows the difference between the solutions of full and simplified equations studied earlier. The result is found to be reliable for {\it low} Reynolds number (R\R) as was the case for a previously studied solution for high R\R. The convergence conditions are defined for the whole range of governing parameters. The viscous flow exhibits some interesting features in flow pattern and hydrodynamic characteristics.
