Experimental investigation of tornado-like vortex dynamics with swirl ratio: The mean and turbulent flow fields

An experimental simulation of tornado-like vortices is conducted in a small tornado vortex simulator in order to study the effect of swirl ratio on flow characteristics. Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) method is employed to quantitatively determine the tornado-vortex velocity field for swirl ratios...
