Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we study the influence of the boundary conditions of the velocity fields in superfluid helium counterflow experiments. To make progress, we perform numerical simulations where we allow a slip velocity of the viscous component at the walls, and observe how this impacts on velocity fields and density profiles of distribution of quantized vortices. We conclude that the presence of a slip velocity at the walls generates a more homogeneous vortex distribution throughout the channel.
