Opis

This book is devoted to the fundamental problems of investigation of free concentrated vortices. The possibilities of mathematical modelling of whirlwinds (tornadoes) are discussed; it states and solves, for the first time the problem of physical (laboratory) modelling of whirlwinds without using mechanical whirling devices. The issues of generation and stability free of vortices and methods for controlling their characteristics are also analysed. The possibilities for affecting atmospheric whirling formations of various scales are described. The book is designed for scientists investigating hydrodynamics and heat and mass transfer of vortex flows, as well as for university teachers, students and post-graduate students.
