An analytical and experimental investigation of flow characteristics generated by rotating porous disk

This paper is concerned with investigations of the gas flow around and in the cell-porous rotating disk. A simple 1D model of gas flow is presented. Usually the cell-porous materials are applied in heat exchangers and stationary filters. On the other hand, peculiarities of the flow revealed under theoretical analysis and some experimental observations demonstrate that rotating porous disks may also be effectively exploited in the shear-force machines for the gas transport purposes.
