文摘The linear stability analysis of the fiber suspension Taylor-Couette flow against axisymmetric and non-axisymmetric disturbances is investigated. A generalized complex eigenvalue problem generated from the linearized set of the three-dimensional governing system equations around the basic Couette azimuthal solution are solved numerically with the Chebyshev spectral method. In a wide range of radius ratios and the magnitudes of counter rotating, critical bifurcation thresholds from the axisymmetric Couette flow to the flow with different azimuthal wave numbers are obtained. The complex dispersion relations of the linearized stability equation system for vortex patterns with different azimuthal wave number are calculated for real axial wave numbers for axially extended vortex structures.
