Double Vortex Tube Interation


This is a continuation of the study of the effects of varying radius, velocity, and approximity of two offset orthogonal vortex tubes in a periodic cube using the Burnham-Hallock approximation. (BH) The differences with the Lamb-Oseen solution are expolored. The distance between the two vortex centers is 5, with unequal radial envolopes. The vortex tube along x is given a 50% enlargement (shown above the y vortex tube).

This study uses 648 points in each direction.
