Modal switching of bubbly Taylor–Couette flow investigated by particle tracking velocimetry

Injection of bubbles into Taylor–Couette flow creates new flow modes which have not been experienced in single-phase flow conditions. An array of spiral vortices array is one such mode departing from the original toroidal Taylor vortices. The aim of the present study is to explore the mode transitio...

Zusammenfassung:Injection of bubbles into Taylor–Couette flow creates new flow modes which have not been experienced in single-phase flow conditions. An array of spiral vortices array is one such mode departing from the original toroidal Taylor vortices. The aim of the present study is to explore the mode transition of the two-phase flow using particle tracking velocimetry. Vertical-axis concentric cylinder with a rotating inner cylinder was used to measure the motion of both phases in the range 600
