Abstract
We present an experiment where a stretched vortex is experiencing quasiperiodical turbulent bursts inside a laminar environment. The flow is characterized in the spectral and spatial domain using hot film and Particle Image Velocimetry Measurements. Some comparisons with the Lundgren vortex energy cascade mechanism are proposed.
