Abstract

The conditions of the formation of toroidal vortices (TVs), i.e., the plasma TV and air vortex ring at atmospheric pressure, are experimentally determined. The TV formation process is numerically simulated. Local characteristics of the pulsed jet, induced flow of ambient medium (air), and forming TV at various time points are obtained. It is shown that the results of the preliminary numerical calculation are in agreement with experimental data.
