Spatiotemporal Structure of Tubular Vortices in Turbulence

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Fluid Mechanics and Its Applications ((FMIA,volume 59))

Abstract

Vortical structure and its dynamics in turbulence are investigated by the use of the low-pressure vortex. The double spiral structure of cross-axial vorticity is formed around a tubular vortex on which the axial vorticity is dominant. Vortex axes are being re-linked by reconnections either of tip-type or T-type. An automatic tracking scheme of vortex axes is successfully applied to a turbulent field.
