The transition to a periodic flow induced by a thin fin on the sidewall of a differentially heated cavity is numerically investigated. The numerical results are compared with a previously reported experiment. It is demonstrated that the transient flow obtained numerically shows features consistent w

The relative flow of a homogeneous, slightly viscous fluid in a rotating cylinder is induced by differential rotation of the bottom disk, on which a thin circular strip of small height is fixed. The axis of symmetry of the strip coincides with the rotation axis of the cylinder. At the strip a Stewa
## Abstract An experimental study of heat transfer on a horizontal rotating cylinder near a flat plate was performed. The cylinder and plate were set in a crossβflow. Temperature distribution and coefficients of local heat transfer were measured by a MachβZehnder interferometer. Flow visualization
A numerical investigation has been carried out to study the effect of a geometric perturbation on the three-dimensional buoyancy-driven flow and heat transfer in an annular cavity with impermeable end walls. The numerical scheme used in the present study is based on a Galerkin method of finite eleme
