Abstract
We solve the nonlinear two-fluid Hall–Vinen–Bekharevich–Khalatnikov equations of motion of helium II for the first time and investigate the configuration of quantized vortex lines in Taylor–Couette flow. The results are interpreted in terms of quantities which can be observed by measuring the attenuation of second sound. Comparison is made with existing experimental results.Keywords
