Abstract

The Taylor vortices were reproduced in a spreadsheet. Spreadsheets are used extensively in scientific and engineering calculations these days. The cells in a spreadsheet can be regarded as the grids in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Furthermore, the cells have the iteration function, and are able to represent the physical characters of the flow field for example. The axi-symmetric laminar incompressible Navier-Stokes equations were solved to investigate the Taylor-Couette flow. The calculation procedures were briefly introduced and the computational results were in reasonable agreement with the experimental ones.
