Project

Vortex Ring

Simulation of vortex ring formation and propagation in fluid showing the coherent structure dynamics.

1 Challenge

Understanding vortex ring formation and axis-switching phenomena.

2 CFD Approach

Vortex ring simulations in a piston elliptical cylinder. When the piston stops, the vortex detaches and moves in the axial direction.

3 Results

After a small time interval, the minor axis X turns into major axis X and vice versa.

4 Engineering Conclusion

The simulation reveals the axis-switching behavior of elliptical vortex rings.
