Characteristics of Taylor-Couette Vortex Flow with Counter Flow

抄録

In this study, we investigated the effects of through-flow (one directional, single phase) on Taylor-Couette vortex by measuring the dynamic characteristics with an Ultrasonic Velocity Profiler (UVP). Then, we have planned to investigate the characteristics of Taylor-Couette vortex flow with counter flow (two directional, two phase). As a first step, we observed the flow patterns of dispersed phase in Taylor-Couette vortex by dyeing the phase. In addition, for the quantitative measurement of the flow field of dispersed phase, we evaluated the applicability of UVP.
