In this paper, we report the experimental and numerical results on spin-up flows in a rectangular container of the aspect ratio 2. The Ekman pumping models used in the numerical study are of 1st- and 2nd- order. We also investigate flows obtained without any pumping model. In the experiment, the classical PIV method is used. It is shown that the results given by the 1st-order and 2nd-order models are in good agreement with the experimental result, whereas the non-pumping model shows a significant discrepancy.

In this paper, we show the numerical and the experimental results of two-dimensional fluid motions inside a rectangular container subjected to a background rotation added by a rotational oscillation. In the PlY experiment we apply a new algorithm, new three step search(NTSS), to the velocity calculation. In the numerical computation, the linear Ekman-pumping model was used to take the bottom friction effect into account. It was found that it well produces the experimental results at low e number.

In this paper, we show the numerical and experimental results of two-dimensional fluid motions inside a rectangular container with a vertical plate subjected to a background rotation added by a rotational oscillation. In the PIV experiment we apply a new algorithm, NTSS, to the velocity calculation. In the numerical computation, the linear Ekman-pumping model was used to take the bottom friction effect into account. It was found that it showed good agreement with the experimental results at low ${\epsilon}$ number.
