Abstract

Based on the results of numerical simulation of a nonstationary, nonaxisymmetric turbulent swirling gas flow in a tube with local sources of heat release, it is shown that a precessing vortex core (PVC) appears at supercritical values of the swirl parameter as a result of the development of instability of a left-handed bending mode. The dependence of the PVC frequency on the mass flow rate of the gas and the heat-source power has been studied. As the heat-source power increases, the frequency of precession grows while the amplitude of vortex core oscillations drops.
