A NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION OF THE FORMATION OF SECONDARY VORTICES IN LABORATORY-SIMULATED TORNADOES.

Two numerical models, described in detail herein, have been constructed and used to investigate the formation of secondary vortices in axisymmetrically-forced rotating flows. The particular type of vortex flow examined is that developed in a laboratory vortex simulator where secondary vortices have...
