Abstract: This paper provides an improvement over the earlier theoretical analysis for a rigid, frictionless, cylindrical capsule moving parallel to the horizontal pipe wall (Garg and Round [1]) by taking ...

Abstract: Linear spatial stability of the nonparallel developing flow in a concentric annulus shows that the asymmetric disturbance with an azimuthal wave number equal to unity is more unstable than the ...

Abstract: Linear spatial stability of the nonparallel developing flow in a rigid circular pipe has been studied at several axial locations for nonaxisymmetric disturbances. The main flow velocity profile ...

Abstract: A theoretical investigation into the linear, spatial instability of the developing flow in a rigid circular pipe, incorporating the effects of nonparallelism of the main flow, has been made at ...

Abstract: It is found that even a 5 percent change in the velocity profile produces a 100 percent change in the critical Reynolds number for the stability of developing flow very close to the entrance ...

Abstract: The stability of fully developed, parallel flow in a rigid, concentric annulus to infinitesimal disturbances is analyzed. It is found that the annular flow is spatially stable to axisymmetric ...

Abstract: An existing three-dimensional Navier–Stokes code (Arnone et al., 1991), modified to include film cooling considerations (Garg and Gaugler, 1994), has been used to study the effect of coolant ...

Abstract: A theoretical investigation into the linear, spatial stability of plane laminar jets is presented. The three cases studied are: 1. Inviscid stability of Sato’s velocity profile. 2. Viscous ...

Abstract: A theoretical analysis of the linear, spatial stability of Bickley’s jet is presented. The analysis takes into account the effects of transverse velocity component and the axial variations of ...
