STABILITY OF VISCOUS FLOW IN A CURVED CHANNEL WITH RADIAL TEMPERATURE GRADIENT
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMPUTERS & TECHNOLOGY - Year 2016, Vol 15, Issue 8
Abstract
In this paper, the stability of Dean’s problem in the presence of a radial temperature gradient is studied for narrow gap case. The analytical solution of the eigen value problem is obtained by using the Galerkin’s method. The critical values of parameters and Λ are computed, where  is wave number and Λ is a parameter determining the onset of stability from the obtained analytical expressions for the first, second and third approximations. It is found that the difference between the numerical values of critical Λ corresponding to the second and third approximations is very small as compared to the difference between first and second approximations. The critical values of Λ obtained by the third approximation agree very well with the earlier results computed numerically by using the finite difference method. This clearly indicates that for the better result one should obtain the numerical values by taking more terms in approximation. Also, the amplitude of the radial velocity and the cell-patterns are shown on the graphs for different values of the parameter M, which depends on difference of temperatures of outer cylinder to the inner one i.e. on (), where is the temperature of inner cylinder and  is the temperature of outer cylinder.
