Analytical and numerical results for the non-stationary rotating disk flow
Abstract
This paper deals with the time-dependent flow due to an infinite rotating disk. The Navier-Stokes equations are transformed by Von Kármán's similarity approach. The resulting equations have been studied both numerically and analytically for two cases: (1) the flow due to a disk whose angular velocity abruptly changes sign, and (2) the oscillating disk flow. Some numerical results are compared with the outcome of the analysis.
