Aerospace Instrument-Making Annotation << Back SIMULATIONS OF SWIRLING FLOWS OF COMPRESSIBLE AND INCOMPRESSIBLE MEDIA IN VORTEX TUBES Sh.A. Piralishvili, O.V. Vasiluk, A.A. Dobrenko The work presents a numerical simulation of gas-dynamic parameters and the flow structure in the vortex tubes. The results are compared with well known experiments. It’s shown that the effect of energy separation depend on the formation of large-scale vortex structures. Determinated main parameters, which reduce to formation of vapor core. Keywords: Vortex tube, energy separation, numerical simulation, swirled flow, vortex of vapor. E-mail: piral@list.ru
