摘 要:An analysis of the flow in the gap between a rotating cone and a stationary plate at low Reynolds numbers is presented. Using series expansions for the components of the mean velocity profile and the pressure gradient the Navier-Stokes equations and the continuity equation for a Newtonian fluid written in cylindrical coordinates are solved. It is found that the solution is stable and convergent for the local Reynolds numbers Re smaller than 1.2928. The computed angle of the wall streamlines is found to be in good agreement with experimental data.
