The linear spin-up of a stratified, rotating fluid in a square cylinder
Here we present experimental and theoretical results for how a stratified fluid, initially rotating as a solid body with constant angular velocity, , within a closed cylinder of square cross-section, is spun up when subject to a small, impulsive increase, , in the cylinder’s rotation rate. The fluid...
