Transient instability of the flow induced by an impulsively started rotating cylinder

The onset of instability induced by transient momentum diffusion in a boundary layer over an impulsively started rotating cylinder is Examined. Kirchner and Chen (J. Fluid Mech. 40 (1970) 39) have conducted experiments and reported anomalously large Taylor numbers of up to 20 × 106, far exceeding th...
