Axisymmetric modeling to efficiently simulate tornado-like vortex in Ward-type chamber using OpenFOAM
Tornadoes represent a substantial hazard to nuclear power plant infrastructures, particularly in terms of potential damage caused by wind-borne debris. A comprehensive understanding of the three-dimensional flow structure of tornadoes is essential to assess such hazards. Ward-type tornado-like vorte...
