High Temperature Aims and scope

Abstract

Video filming is used to investigate the possibility of influencing the characteristics of free concentrated vortexes generated under laboratory conditions over a heated underlying surface. The method of influencing consists in arranging obstacles in the form of vertical nets of different geometries in the path of air vortex.
