The vortex tube, also known as the Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube, is a mechanical device that separates a compressed gas into hot and cold streams. The gas emerging from the hot end can reach temperatures of 200 °C (390 °F), and the gas emerging from the cold end can reach −50 °C (−60 °F). [ 1 ]
A Scientific Industries Inc. Vortex-Genie 2 vortex mixer in operation A vortex mixer , or vortexer , is a simple device used commonly in laboratories to mix small vials of liquid. It consists of an electric motor with the drive shaft oriented vertically and attached to a cupped rubber piece mounted slightly off-center.
Vortex is a 2021 avant-garde psychological drama film [3] written and directed by Gaspar Noé. [4] It stars Dario Argento as a father and author, in his first leading role, [ 5 ] alongside Françoise Lebrun as his wife, and Alex Lutz as their son, Stéphane.
A vortex generator (VG) is an aerodynamic device, consisting of a small vane usually attached to a lifting surface (or airfoil, such as an aircraft wing) [1] or a rotor blade of a wind turbine. [2] VGs may also be attached to some part of an aerodynamic vehicle such as an aircraft fuselage or a car.
Studies of vortices in turbulent fluid motion by Leonardo da Vinci.. In fluid dynamics, vortex stretching is the lengthening of vortices in three-dimensional fluid flow, associated with a corresponding increase of the component of vorticity in the stretching direction—due to the conservation of angular momentum.
The first source term on the right hand side represents vortex stretching. The equation is valid in the absence of any concentrated torques and line forces for a compressible , Newtonian fluid . In the case of incompressible flow (i.e., low Mach number ) and isotropic fluids, with conservative body forces, the equation simplifies to the ...
