Abstract The Taylor‐Couette reactor (TCR) is an apparatus that capitalizes on the Taylor‐
Couette flow, which allows many flow regimes and conditions to perform (bio‐) chemical …

This paper reviews reports on three-dimensional mammalian tissue growth in bioreactors
and the corresponding mammalian tissue growth requirements. The needs for nutrient and …

With the steady advancement of medicine and the healthcare industry, the demand for
recombinant biotherapeutics drugs and vaccines has increased in the last two decades. This …

The aim of this paper is to relate flocculation to hydrodynamics in a Taylor–Couette reactor
and in a jar. Hydrodynamics is first studied experimentally with a particle image velocimetry …

Since the seminal work of Taylor in 1923, Taylor–Couette (TC) flow has served as a
paradigm to study hydrodynamic instabilities and bifurcation phenomena. Transitions of …

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is well established as a tool of choice for solving
problems that involve one or more of the following phenomena: flow of fluids, heat transfer …

An experimental study of inertial migration of neutrally buoyant particles in the circular
Couette flow (CCF), Taylor vortex flow (TVF) and wavy vortex flow (WVF) is reported. This …

To further differentiate adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) into mature adipocytes and create
three-dimensional (3D) adipose tissue in vitro, we applied multicompartment hollow fiber …

The annular centrifugal contactors based on the Taylor-vortex flow have a great potential in
chemical, nuclear, metallurgy and biotechnology industry. This equipment has been …

Direct numerical simulation (DNS) is used to investigate turbulent Taylor–Couette (TC) flow.
A simulation was run for a Reynolds number of 3200 in an apparatus with a radius ratio of …
