With the blobs-splitting-and-merging scheme, the vortex merging is calculated by a corrected core spreading vortex method (CCSVM). The particle motion in the vortex merging process is calculated according to the particle kinetic model. The results indicate that the particle traces are spiral lines with the same rotation direction as the spinning vortex. The center of the particle group is in agreement with that of the merged vortex. The merging time is determined by the circulation and the initial ratio of the vortex radius and the vortex center distance. Under a certain initial condition, a stretched particle trail is generated, which is determined by the viscosity, the relative position between the particles and the vortex, and the asymmetrical circulation of the two merging vortices.展开更多

The quantitative measurements are acquired by the use of a LDV. It is shown that the development of the coherent structures can be greatly influenced by upstream artificial perturbations and as a result the mixing in the layer can be controlled. Like vortex merging, vortex splitting is also a common evolu- tion pattern in the development of the coherent structures.展开更多

Both the interaction of a cyclonic vortex with vorticity lumps and the interaction of the vortex with the shearing basic flow may induce the strengthening of the vortex in a short period, however, the vortex intensity still shows a general decreasing tendency over the whole integration time period. The interaction among the shearing basic flow, cyclonic vortex, and multiple vorticity lumps can change the tendency. The merging of the cyclonic vortex with vorticity lumps in the shearing basic flow of positive vorticity is directly responsible for the maintenance and development of the cyclonic vortex.展开更多
