Abstract

When a straight channel formed by two parallel plates, through which two immiscible fluids are flowing under constant pressure gradients is rotated about an axis perpendicular to the plates, secondary motion is set up. The secondary motion is analysed in detail for constant angular velocity ohm', lambda the ratio of their viscosities. The associated heat transfer problems, when the plate temperatures are equal and different, have also been studied.
