Using the HVBK model to investigate the Couette flow of helium II

Description

We review the application of the two-fluid HVBK equations to helium II in Couette geometry, that is flow between concentric, rotating cylinders. This application is particularly interesting as a large number of experiments have been carried out in this geometry and also because Couette flow is an exact solution of the HVBK equations for both the normal fluid and superfluid.
