Experimental and Numerical investigations of mixing and axial diffusion in Taylor-Couette flow patterns
Résumé
Two-phase Taylor-Couette flows between two concentric cylinders have great potential applications in nuclear engineering. They are particularly convenient for small scale devices enabling solvent extraction operations. The flow has been characterized by means of simultaneous PIV (particle image velocimetry) and PLIF (planar laser induced fluorescence) measurements. Moreover, direct numerical simulations have been used to investigate mixing properties of different flow patterns (from steady TVF Taylor vortex flow towards MWVF modulated wavy vortex flow).
