摘要:

我们目前的角动量输运(扭矩)测量在最近的两个实验研究的湍流之间的独立旋转的圆柱。除了这些研究,我们重新分析以前的扭矩测量,以扩大实验泰勒-库埃特流的控制参数的范围。我们发现,扭矩可以被描述为仅依赖于雷诺数的功能,它描述了湍流驱动强度,和旋转数,其特征在于全球旋转的影响的产品。对于一个给定的雷诺数,全球角动量输运开普勒样的流动剖面是约14%的最大可实现的传输速率。我们估计,这种水平的运输将产生一个吸积率$\dot{M}/\dot{M_0} \sim 10^{-3}$在天体物理磁盘。我们认为,这种水平的运输从流体力学本身可能是显着的。

英文摘要:

We present angular momentum transport (torque) measurements in two recent experimental studies of the turbulent flow between independently rotating cylinders. In addition to these studies, we reanalyze prior torque measurements to expand the range of control parameters for the experimental Taylor-Couette flows. We find that the torque may be described as a product of functions that depend only on the Reynolds number, which describes the turbulent driving intensity, and the rotation number, which characterizes the effects of global rotation. For a given Reynolds number, the global angular momentum transport for Keplerian-like flow profiles is approximately 14% of the maximum achievable transport rate. We estimate that this level of transport would produce an accretion rate of $\dot{M}/\dot{M_0} \sim 10^{-3}$ in astrophysical disks. We argue that this level of transport from hydrodynamics alone could be significant.
