Similarity solutions of thermal vortex rings: Vorticity–dynamics-based derivation

This study derives the classical similarity solutions for the thermal vortex ring, originally deduced by Scorer [J. Fluid Mech. 2, 583–594 (1957)] based on dimensional analysis from basic principles of vorticity dynamics. Derivations are performed by two methods: (1) by completing the impulse-dynami...
