The torque in turbulent Taylor-Couette flows for shear Reynolds numbers Re_S up to 3x10^4 at various mean rotations is studied by means of direct numerical simulations for a radius ratio of \eta=0.71. Convergence of simulations is tested…
We use experiments and direct numerical simulations to probe the phase-space of low-curvature Taylor--Couette (TC) flow in the vicinity of the ultimate regime. The cylinder radius ratio is fixed at $\eta=r_i/r_o=0.91$. Non-dimensional shear…
Analytic predictions of mean velocity profile (MVP) and streamwise ($x$) development of related integral quantities are presented for flows in channel and turbulent boundary layer (TBL), based on a symmetry analysis of eddy length and total…
The variance and spectra of wall-normal velocities are investigated for direct numerical simulations of turbulent flow in a channel, pipe, and zero-pressure-gradient boundary layer across a decade of friction Reynolds numbers. Spectra along…
We study the Couette Taylor instabilities for an incompressible viscous fluid between two coaxial cylinders of nearly equal radii, allowing counter-rotation with the ratio of rotation rate $\mu \in [-1,1]$. Working in a rotating frame and…
The logarithmic velocity profile is the most important statistical law of classical turbulence affected by channel walls. This paper demonstrates numerically that the logarithmic velocity profile of a superfluid flow appears in quantum…
A celebrated universal aspect of wall-bounded turbulent flows is the von Karman log-law-of-the-wall, describing how the mean velocity in the streamwise direction depends on the distance from the wall. Although the log-law is known for more…
We study the decay of high-Reynolds number Taylor-Couette turbulence, i.e. the turbulent flow between two coaxial rotating cylinders. To do so, the rotation of the inner cylinder (Re$_i=2 \times 10^6$, the outer cylinder is at rest) is…
The turbulent boundary layer (TBL) development over an air cavity is experimentally studied using planar particle image velocimetry. The present flow, representative of those typically encountered in ship air lubrication, resembles the…
The flow of an electrically conducting fluid in a thin disc under the action of an azimuthal Lorentz force is studied experimentally. At small forcing, the Lorentz force is balanced by either viscosity or inertia, yielding quasi-Keplerian…
We study the global, i.e. radially averaged, high Reynolds number (asymptotic) scaling of streamwise turbulence intensity squared defined as ${I^2=\overline{u^2}/U^2}$, where $u$ and $U$ are the fluctuating and mean velocities, respectively…
A three-layer asymptotic structure for turbulent pipe flow is proposed, revealing in terms of intermediate variables, the existence of a Reynolds-number invariant logarithmic region. It provides a theoretical foundation for addressing…
We investigate theoretically the near-wall region in elastic turbulence of a dilute polymer solution in the limit of large Weissenberg number. As it was established experimentally, elastic turbulence possesses a boundary layer where the…
In this paper, we consider the asymptotic stability of the 2D Taylor-Couette flow in the exterior disk, with a small kinematic viscosity $\nu \ll 1$ and a large rotation coefficient $|B|$. Due to the degeneracy of the Taylor-Couette flow at…
We investigate the existence of multiple turbulent states in highly turbulent Taylor-Couette flow in the range of $\mathrm{Ta}=10^{11}$ to $9\cdot10^{12}$, by measuring the global torques and the local velocities while probing the phase…
Modeling of wall-bounded turbulent flows is still an open problem in classical physics, with only modest progress made in the last few decades beyond the so-called `log law', which describes only the intermediate region in wall-bounded…
We investigate the linear instability of flows that are stable according to Rayleigh's criterion for rotating fluids. Using Taylor-Couette flow as a primary test case, we develop large Reynolds number matched asymptotic expansion theories.…
Numerical studies performed with a primitive equation model on two-dimensional sinusoidal hills show that the local velocity profiles behave logarithmically to a very good approximation, from a distance from the surface of the order of the…
Applying a sufficiently rapid start-stop to the outer cylinder of the Couette-Taylor system, structures approximately aligned with the axis were recorded in the classic work of Coles (1965). These short-lived rolls are oriented…
We report an experimental study of the properties of the velocity boundary layer in turbulent Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection in a cylindrical cell. The measurements were made at Rayleigh numbers $Ra$ in the range…
