An experimental study on vortex-rings colliding with surfaces with micro-features by Sanjay, Godsay Nikhil

“…An interesting vortex dipole was seen to form in the inner confines of the primary vortex ring upon collision in certain experiments due to boundary layer separation within the primary vortex ring rolling up into an internal secondary vortex core. The creation an ejection of secondary vortex structures outside of the primary vortex rings were only observed in experiments with a post diameter of 1mm and separation distances of 2.5mm and 10mm.…”
