Abstract
Von Kármán swirling viscous flow produced by an infinite rotating disk is investigated, both analytically and numerically, when the fluid at infinity is in a state of rigid body rotation. The analytical solution branch of the problem considered are shown conveniently when the fluid at infinity is rotating with a different ratio, 0 ⤠s ⤠1, of the angular velocity to that of the disk. As forâ¯ââ¯0.1575 ⤠s < 0, the forward shooting technique by Runge-Kutta combined with Newton-Raphson method, different from previous conclusions, can still give effectively the first solution branch of dual solutions by Zandbergen and Dijkstra [11] who adopted a backward shooting technique. The solution branches of von Kármán swirling viscous flow are enriched. A possible explanation is made from both mathematical and physical perspectives.
