  • I think this particular one had an outer cylinder dia of 6 inches and the inner was about 5 inches...you can play around with that...same goes for the angular velocity. It's the Reynolds number that matters.

  • Hi, Can i ask what is the diameter of both your cylinders and what is the rotational velocity of the inner cylinder when taylor flow occured? Thanks a lot!!

  • @starkidccchen If I remember correctly, the outer was about 15mm, the inner was about 12 or so...the taylor vortices appear fairly early around 2rpm (depends on the viscosity of the working solution)

  • Yes. This is JNU in Delhi. You can contact Prof. Ram Ramaswamy at the School of Physical Sciences, JNU.

  • Fluid's water+glycerol mixture...about 20percent, Kalliroscope for visualization. We got it machined at the JNU workshop, so I'm not entirely sure of the machining specs

  • Fire away. What questions do you have?
