Laboratory vortices in rotating, sheared flow.
Abstract
By placing a small convective source (electrical heater) in a rotating, vertically sheared, stratified flow in a rotating annulus, a well-organized vortex flow is generated. A qualitative description of the flow is given. The flow is always cyclonic below the heater and anticyclonic above, and is quite persistent in the sheared flow.
