摘要
A stability analysis of flow between two coaxial rotating cylinders in the presence of fibers was performed. Based on the axisymmetric normal mode for the disturbances, a modified stability equation was derived. Then the numerical solution of the eigenvalue problem about the equation was obrained using the fourth order finite difference scheme. The marginal curves that determine the instability property were drawn. The results show that the flow instability of the dilute fiber suspensions is governed by the aspect ratio of fiber H, the inerement of H causes an increase of critical inner Reynohts number. The fiber additives effectively attenuate the instability of the flow. which is in agreement with those of related experiments.
