RÉSUMÉ

Direct numerical simulation was performed to study the turbulent structure of Couette flow at high Reynolds numbers under a stable system rotation. To compare the flow structure, the same friction Reynolds number flow without a rotation is also calculated. A stable system rotation makes the flow relaminarising, and turbulent stripes are observed near the walls. These stripes move independently of each other and are separated by homogeneous turbulence at the channel centre. Turbulent energy is strongly produced and dissipated in the homogeneous turbulence away from the wall; therefore, an improvement in heat transfer could be realised.
