For all cylinder leng gths L1, L2 <strong>and</strong>d<br />

L3 the meann<br />

position <strong>of</strong> the vortex coore<br />

moves in a clockwis se direction frrom<br />

z1 near tthe<br />

cylinder inlet<br />

to the laast<br />

position n. This demon nstrates that thhe<br />

vortex core has a helical ppath<br />

that rotattes<br />

in the same s direction n as the swirl direction (Figgures<br />

4.6-4.8). . The radius <strong>of</strong><br />

the heli ical path is sm mall <strong>and</strong> lies wwith<br />

X/R= 0.1. . For a given ccylinder<br />

lengtth,<br />

the radi ius <strong>of</strong> the heli ical path is noot<br />

the same foor<br />
