Abstract

From this work it comes out that it was difficult to define in a more precise way the conditions allowing the analysis of stability in geometries G1 and G2 not without disturbing by the finited dimensions of experiment. So, it is necessary to sharpen our knowledge about possible flows even with no instabilities.

In other aspects, there is great difficulty to define the magnitude of the value regarding the acceptable geometrical errors (for example, how precise is the rotating disk in keeping the same plan) which allows the conclusions relating to the development of instabilities to carry a good enough general validity.
