Abstract
Low-dimensional representations of the axisymmetric Navier-Stokes equations are generated by a Galerkin projection. Proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) techniques based on snapshots generated from a finite-difference algorithm are used. The Reynolds number range is extended by adding displacement vectors to the Galerkin basis. For the fluid flow enclosed in a cylindrical vessel with rotating end cover, the first transition from steady to oscillatory motion is detected as a supercritical Hopf bifurcation. Comparison with the full numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations as well as experimental results show excellent agreement.
