Experimental evidence for a new type of stretched vortex

Abstract

Experimental measurements performed under conditions which reproduce most of the dynamical characteristics of the natural evolution of vorticity filaments in turbulent flows are presented here. Strong deviations from the Burgers vortex (which is a non-confined stretched vortex model) are observed and analyzed.
