On the motion of a cylindrical container in a circular pipe under the action of a liquid flow

  • Published:
Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

From the viewpoint of the anisotropic near-wall turbulence model an analytical solution of the problem of axially symmetric motion of a cylindrical container of neutral buoyancy caused by an incompressible turbulent flow in a straight circular pipe has been obtained. This analytical solution agrees with experiments. It establishes the relations between the mean velocity in the pipe and the container velocity and between the velocity gradient in the pipe and the velocity gradient in the gap between the pipe wall and the side wall of the container.
