The results of a numerical investigation of the Coriolis effect in flows through rotating-rectangular conduits are presented. The secondary flows that are induced are described from the viewpoint of a vorticity-production mechanism. In the centrifugation of fully-developed flows through rectangular passages, as the rate of rotation increases, the secondary flows induced by the Coriolis effect undergo a number of interesting transitions that have an impact on transport phenomena. The main purposes of this investigation are to describe the Coriolis effect in terms of vorticity transport and to determine the evolution of steady solutions as the relevant parameters describing their dynamics are varied. In this study we found a region of nonunique solutions over a range of Reynolds numbers. We also found that the onset of roll cells is associated with a turning point bifurcation.
