Inviscid swirling flows and vortex breakdown

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1995
Abstract The steady axisymmetric Euler flow of an inviscid incompressible swirling fluid is described exactly by the Squire–Long equation. This equation is studied numerically for the case of diverging flow to investigate the dependence of solutions on upstream, or inlet, and downstream, or outlet, boundary conditions and flow ...

Aspects of vortex breakdown

Progress in Aerospace Sciences, 1994
Abstract Vortex breakdown is of primary importance in many situations met in aeronautical as well as extra-aeronautical applications. During the past 40 years, this problem has been the subject of a large number of investigations, both in the experimental and theoretical domains.

On Vortex Breakdown and Instability.

1981
Abstract : Solutions of the full steady axisymmetric Navier-Stokes equations for breakdown in an unconfined viscous vortex have been obtained by Grabowski and Berger. The core Reynolds numbers were varied up to 200 and a two-parameter family of velocity distributions was assumed upstream as the boundary condition. In this report, the Richardson numbers

The Structure of Vortex Breakdown

Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 1978
The term 'vortex breakdown', as used in the reported investigation, refers to a disturbance characterized by the formation of an internal stagnation point on the vortex axis, followed by reversed flow in a region of limited axial extent. Two forms of vortex breakdown, which predominate, are shown in photographs.

On the interpretation of vortex breakdown

Physics of Fluids, 1995
Studying the numerous papers that have appeared in the recent past that address ‘‘vortex breakdown,’’ it may be difficult for a reader to avoid getting rather confused. It appears that various authors or even schools have conflicting views on the correct interpretation of the physics of vortex breakdown. Following the investigation by Keller et al. [Z.

Simple numerical criterion for vortex breakdown

AIAA Journal, 1992
Vortex breakdown is currently identified in numerical flow solutions through postprocessing techniques. Although these methods can identify breakdown accurately, they can involve cumbersome data transfer and processing that can be quite time consuming. Therefore, a simple Rossby number criterion is proposed. The criterion is established using solutions

Disrupted states of vortex flow and vortex breakdown

The Physics of Fluids, 1977
Flow visualization studies and laser Doppler anemometer measurements on swirling water flows reveal six distinct types of very large amplitude disturbance modes of the vortex core. Three, ’’axisymmetric’’ and spiral vortex breakdowns, and the ’’double helix,’’ have been described by others.

Vortex Breakdown

Abstract A thin vortex tube can undergo a sudden expansion, often leading to instability and turbulence, if subject to an external deceleration. This is called vortex breakdown, and it is often observed in swirling flow in a slowly diverging pipe, and in the scroll vortices that develop on the upper surface of a delta wing.

The Vortex Breakdown of a Columnar Vortex with Axial Flow

2007
The vortex breakdown of a columnar vortex with axial flow (q-vortex[1]) is investigated numerically. The formation of turbulent eddies around the columnar vortex and the vortex-core deformations are studied in detail by visualizing the flow field. In the marginally stable case with q = -1.5, small thin spiral structures are formed inside the vortex ...
