Transitional cylindrical swirling flow in presence of a flat free surface

Roland Bouffanais, David Lo Jacono

This article is devoted to the study of an incompressible viscous flow of a fluid partly enclosed in a cylindrical container with an open top Surface and driven by the constant rotation of the bottom wall. Such type of flows belongs to a group of recircula ...
