KINETIC ENERGY OF ISOLATED THERMAL VORTICES

UDC 532.517.4

Experiments to study the conditions for thermal-to-kinetic 
energy transition for an isolated vortex are described. On 
the basis  of laboratory and full-scale measurements it is 
proved  that  the  individuality  of an isolated vortex is 
characterized by an energy similarity criterion,  which is 
equal  to the ratio of the kinetic energy to the potential 
energy of the vortex.
