| Research Abstract |
In the study of the basic properties of the elementary vortices, the spatial distribution and the Reynolds number dependence of their physical characteristics have been clarified quantitatively, suggesting that the elementary vortices may keep their dynamical importance at larger Reynolds numbers. An automatic chasing scheme of vortices has been developed to find the anti-parallel approach of vortices, which stretch the fluia lines and surfaces exponentially in time. The compressibility of fluids has been shown to induce vortex waves and to suppress the vortex growth. A new dynamo phenomenon by interactions between convection vortices and magnetic fields has been discovered in MHD turbulence. unstable periodic motions accompanying the generation and breakdown of the elementary vortices has been found in Couette turbulence. In the study of basic dynamical properties of the elementary vortices, the interaction of large-scale coherent vertical structures and turbulent field has been investigated with or without the axial flow in the coherent vortices. In the former case, fine scale vortices are generated and wrapped around the vortex surface, and axi-symmetric bending vortices are generated inside the coherent vortex. In the latter, on the other hand, vortex rings produced from the elementary vortices enhance the energy dissipation at the periphery of the vortex core. In a Poiseuille turbulence, longitudinal Vortex and streak structures have been observed in the outer layer like as in the inner layer.
