Abstract: Numerical and asymptotic solutions of the similarity equations governing the laminar compressible rotating flow near the edge of a finite disk are presented for a wide range of the Prandtl and ...

Abstract: An improved momentum integral method for the solution of shrouded rotating disk problems is presented. The method admits compressibility and accounts for the radial variation of the velocity ...

Abstract: The laminar isothermal compressible flow in a rotating cylinder with a stationary bottom is treated both numerically and by boundary layer matching. The numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes ...

Abstract: The rotating boundary layer flow over a plane sector of angle θs and infinite radius is solved. For sufficiently large radius the radial coordinate is eliminated by a Von Karman transformation, ...

Abstract: The laminar boundary layer in rotating compressible flow over an infinite rotating disk is considered for various ratios of disk-to-infinity rotation rates and temperatures. It is shown that a ...

Abstract: The centrifugally-driven flow due to a density gradient between the surface of an infinite disk and the ambient fluid in a rotating system with mass transfer is studied for the case of high ...
