THE STEADY STREAMING INDUCED BETWEEN OSCILLATING CIRCULAR CYLINDERS
E. W. Haddon, N. Riley · The Quarterly Journal of Mechanics and Applied Mathematics · 1979
Fluid is contained in the annulus between concentric circular cylinders. With the outer cylinder held fixed a fluid motion is induced in the annulus when the inner cylinder performs small-amplitude oscillations perpendicular to its generators. The time-independent component of this motion is studied at finite values of an appropriately defined Reynolds number by means of numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations. The results obtained are compared with experimental observations and earlier theories.
