Abstract
This study experimentally and numerically investigated the thermo-fluid dynamics of Taylor-Couette flow with an axial temperature gradient from the chemical engineering perspective. A Taylor-Couette apparatus with a jacket vertically divided into two parts was used in the experiments. Based on the flow visualization and temperature measurement for glycerol aqueous solutions with various concentrations, the flow pattern was classified into six modes: heat convection dominant mode (Case I), heat convection-Taylor vortex flow alternate mode (Case II), Taylor vortex flow dominant mode (Case III), fluctuation maintaining Taylor cell structure mode (Case IV), segregation between Couette flow and Taylor vortex flow mode (Case V) and upward motion mode (Case VI). These flow modes weremapped in terms of the Reynolds and Grashof numbers. Cases II, IV, V and VI are regarded as transition flow patterns between Case I and Case III, depending on the concentration. In addition, numerical simulations showed that in Case II, heat transfer was enhanced when the Taylor-Couette flow was altered by heat convection. Moreover, the average Nusselt number with the alternate flow was higher than that with the stable Taylor vortex flow. Thus, the interaction between heat convection and Taylor-Couette flow is an effective tool to enhance heat transfer. This article is part of the theme issue 'Taylor-Couette and related flows on the centennial of Taylor's seminal Philosophical Transactions paper (Part 2)'.

Abstract
Supplemental oxygenation and carbon dioxide removal through an intravenous respiratory assist catheter can be used as a means of treating patients with acute respiratory failure. We are beginning development efforts toward a new respiratory assist catheter with an insertional size <25F, which can be inserted percutaneously. In this study, we evaluated fiber bundle rotation as an improved mechanism for active mixing and enhanced gas exchange in intravenous respiratory assist catheters. Using a simple test apparatus of a rotating densely packed bundle of hollow fiber membranes, water and blood gas exchange levels were evaluated at various rotation speeds in a mock vena cava. At 12,000 RPM, maximum CO2 gas exchange rates were 449 and 523 mL/min per m2, water and blood, respectively, but the rate of increase with increasing rotation rate diminished beyond 7500 RPM. These levels of gas exchange efficiency are two- to threefold greater than achieved in our previous respiratory catheters using balloon pulsation for active mixing. In preliminary hemolysis tests, which monitored plasma-free hemoglobin levels in vitro over a period of 6 hours, we established that the rotating fiber bundle per se did not cause significant blood hemolysis compared with an intra-aortic balloon pump. Accordingly, fiber bundle rotation appears to be a potential mechanism for increasing gas exchange and reducing insertional size in respiratory catheters.
