An experimental investigation on elliptical instability of a strongly asymmetric vortex pair in a stable density stratification
We investigate the elliptical instability of a strongly asymmetric vortex pair in a stratified fluid, generated by the acceleration and deceleration of the rotation of a single flap. The dominant parameter is the Froude number, <i>Fr</i>=<i>U/(NR)</i>, based on the maximum az...
