Abstract

The maximum path L MAX of vortex rings (toroidal vortices) in air and water before the beginning of their decay was experimentally determined in a wide variation range of their initial integral characteristics. A formula for L MAX was derived as a function of primary characteristics of such vortices from the laws of their motion and energy variation. It was shown that this formula is in satisfactory agreement with experimental data.
