  1. How does a shear layer make vortices? - Physics Stack Exchange

    Mar 10, 2024 · 0 How does a shear layer make vortices? If you have 2 streams of air that are moving at different speeds or opposite directions right beside each other, how does that make …

  2. What causes the formation of vortices in a separated flow?

    Aug 14, 2022 · Also, I have heard that an inflection point in the velocity profile leads to instability in the flow (i.e. the flow is unstable to random disturbances) which leads to the production of …

  3. fluid dynamics - How does gravity affect the formation of vortices ...

    May 18, 2022 · However, in large vortices in water bodies, for example, in a closed water bottle, the centre of water often creates a hole that droops down into the water body, and the vortex …

  4. Are closed streamlines necessary to have vortices?

    Feb 27, 2023 · I am studying fluid dynamics, and all the examples I have found so far about vortices show closed streamlines rotating around an axis. All these examples suggest that …

  5. Understanding the Difference Between Vortex and Eddies

    Oct 13, 2008 · Hi, I have a small confusion regarding using the terms "vortex and eddy". My doubt is 'what is vortex and eddy?' 'where are this terms appropriate to be used?' 'what is the …

  6. Formation of Vortices: Reasons & Physical Phenomena

    Aug 16, 2009 · 1. Can anyone please explain in detail How a Vortex if formed. I mean what are the reasons and physical phenomena that cause the water entering a bath tub sink to gain a …

  7. Describing vortices using Gross-Pitaevskii equation

    Oct 13, 2020 · A lot of the description of vortices starts by saying a vortex in a Bose-Einstein condensate can be generated by imparting an angular momentum to the container. So as I …

  8. Reason for whirls and vortices when pouring milk in tea: Which ...

    Oct 30, 2024 · When pouring milk into tea or coffee, one can readily observe finger-like structures with whirls and vortices evolving as the milk flows into the tea or coffee.

  9. condensed matter - What is the Kosterlitz -Thouless transition ...

    However, as the temperature rises, more and more pairs are created, and the distance between the vortices and antivortices grow further and further apart, until there is an unbiding transition …

  10. How to calculate vortex movement in fluid dynamics?

    Dec 2, 2023 · Given there are three vortices of type "Rankine" in an incompressible 2D-fluid, each having radius R and a given vorticity $\Omega$ inside r<R. Outside R vorticity is zero, but …
