Ekman Boundary Layers and Energy Dissipation in Rotating Drums During Spin-Down Process

The Laser Doppler Velocimetry (LDV) is employed to investigate energy dissipation during a spin-down process inside a rotating drum. The tracer/light sheet method is applied to observe flow patterns in the entire flow field from which the instantaneous, two-dimensional velocity distribution and the...
