Abstract
The flow between two parallel streams of unequal velocities is considered, a problem which is usually treated as one of ‘turbulent mixing’ in a shear layer. Here, an alternative approach is suggested: a fully developed inviscid flow is considered, in which the two streams are separated by a thin vortex sheet with an array of rolled-up cores along it. The proposed flow model is described in some detail, and experimental evidence is analysed to demonstrate that the model is physically not unreasonable and to find out what simplifications and assumptions may be made in further theoretical work.
