Vortex-Speed Selection within the Rotating-Disk Boundary Layer

Vortex-Speed Selection within the Rotating-Disk Boundary Layer

A theoretical investigation into the vortex-speed selection within the rotating-disk boundary layer is conducted. Two methods are used which are different to previous investigations in the literature and enable analysis of a particular vortex speed with respect to the rotating surface. Using these m...
