Abstract
We examined wave phenomena pertinent to water in a rotating, laterally oscillating cylindrical container. In particular, we measured the time-dependent dynamic water pressure and pressure change by fast Fourier transform analysis. The swirling of water in the container had three frequency components; the frequency responses of each frequency component are reported herein. When swirling occurs in a rotating cylindrical container, it was found that the wave rotating in the same direction as the rotation of the cylindrical container and the wave rotating in the opposite direction to the cylindrical container exist at the same time. The swirling direction was determined by the relationship of these magnitude.
