Abstract
An optically accessible Taylor-Couette flow has been setup to enable experimental investigation of the influence of surface finish and roughness on the transfer of momentum between the wall and the bulk flow. Details of this facility and flow characterisation are presented, demonstrating the ability to explore flow regimes from laminar Taylor vortices to featureless turbulence.
