Description:
An attempt is made to understand the decay of a free vortex normal to a stationary, infinite boundary. For rapidly swirling flows in fluids of small viscosity, thin boundary layers develop along the rigid boundary and along the axis, the axial boundary layer being strongly influenced by the behaviour of the plate boundary. An over-all picture of the flow is sought, with only moderate success in the region far from the origin. Near the origin, the eruption of the plate boundary layer into the axial boundary layer is studied.
