(Havacılık) Girdap Jeneratörü: Uçakların kanatlarının üst kısmında belli aralıklarla yerleştirilen küçük çıkıntılı yüzey. Girdap ismini kanat üzerinden geçen hava akımlarını girdap şeklinde arkaya aktardıkları için alırlar. Jeneratör kelimesi ise yaptıkları bu girdapların uçaklara boşa giden hava akımlarını enerjiye çevirdikleri için alırlar
akış alanı içindeki bir cismin, ardında periyodik olarak meydana gelen ve kopup giden girdaplar ( bu girdapların cidarlarda sebep olduğu değişken kuvvetler)
A mass of fluid, especially of a liquid, having a whirling or circular motion tending to form a cavity or vacuum in the center of the circle, and to draw in towards the center bodies subject to its action; the form assumed by a fluid in such motion; a whirlpool; an eddy
Descartes attempted to account for the formation of the universe, and the movements of the bodies composing it, by a theory of vortices
A vortex is a mass of wind or water that spins round so fast that it pulls objects down into its empty centre. The polar vortex is a system of wintertime winds
If you refer to a situation as a vortex, you feel that you are being forced into it without being able to prevent it. When marriages break down children are swept into the vortex of their parents' embittered emotions
A passage between an environmental extreme on the Prime Material and the corresponding Elemental Plane
a whirling mass of air in the form of a column or spiral It need not be oriented vertically but, for example, could be rotating around a horizontal axis
A spiral motion of fluid within a limited area, especially a whirling mass of water or air that sucks everything near it towards its center
A term used to describe a flash of light, often colored, that can resemble lightening, but is usually bent at odd angles A vortex often appears to be made up of numerous small orbs
A supposed collection of particles of very subtile matter, endowed with a rapid rotary motion around an axis which was also the axis of a sun or a planet
When a fluid rotates around its own center, it is called a vortex Turbulent flow is made up of many little vortices
(pl -vortices) Fluid flow involving rotation about an axis; a whirlwind A mesovortex is a medium-size whirlwind on the scale of a few miles It is thus smaller than a hurricane but larger than a tornado Back
A revolving mass of water which forms a whirlpool This whirlpool is caused by water flowing out of a small opening in the bottom of a basin or reservoir A funnel-shaped opening is created downward from the water surface
(Havacılık) A vortex generator is an aerodynamic surface, consisting of a small vane that creates a vortex. They can be found in many devices, but the term is most often used in aircraft design
A vortex mixer is a simple device used commonly in laboratories to mix small vials of liquid. It consists of an electric motor with the drive shaft oriented vertically and attached to a cupped rubber piece mounted slightly off-center. As the motor runs the rubber piece oscillates rapidly in a circular motion. When a test tube or other appropriate container is pressed into the rubber cup (or touched to its edge) the motion is transmitted to the liquid inside and a vortex is created. Most vortex mixers have variable speed settings and can be set to run continuously, or to run only when downward pressure is applied to the rubber piece
A ring-shaped mass of moving fluid which, by virtue of its motion of rotation around an axis disposed in circular form, attains a more or less distinct separation from the surrounding medium and has many of the properties of a solid
The theory, advanced by Thomson (Lord Kelvin) on the basis of investigation by Helmholtz, that the atoms are vortically moving ring-shaped masses (or masses of other forms having a similar internal motion) of a homogeneous, incompressible, frictionless fluid
a double row of vortices in a fluid sometimes found in the wake of a cylindrical body (such as in a river, downstream of a bridge support), eddies being produced from alternate sides of the body
a flow pattern exhibited by superfluids, such as 4He below 2.17K, in which the circulation rate is restricted to a quantized multiple of Planck's constant divided by the mass of the He atom
