| 内容記述 | The turbulence structure of a trailing vortex produced at the juncture of a flow aligned cylinder and a pair of oppositely loaded airfoils is analyzed. The freestream turbulence intensity in this study varies from 0.32 to 1.48 percent, the vortex Reynold number varies from 15000 to 25000, and the Rossby number varies from 0.65 to 0.81. Within this parameter range, it is shown that the screens, but not the freestream turbulence level, are able to produce significant variations in the turbulence structure of the vortex, and that the turbulent structure is determined by the Rossby number and not the vortex Reynolds number. It is noted that the core is dynamic and an organized exchange of momentum takes place between the outer flow and the core region of the vortex. The vortex structure in the trailing vortex having the lowest Rossby number is considered. |
