Limiting cases short times identical to the vorticity distributionobtained using the asymptotic analysis for rings at the initial stage (Chi-Tzung Wang et al., 1994) long times identical to the vorticity distribution obtained for ringsat the decaying stage (Phillip’s,1956) The solution at the initial stage has the Gaussian form.

  35. Conclusions • A new vortex ring model, valid in the entire range of times, has been suggested. The modelagrees with earlier reported models for the initial and decaying stages of vortex ring development and experimental results. It can be considered as a viscous analog to the Norbury family of rings. • The model is shown to be useful for modelling high-Reynolds-number ring flows and turbulent vortex rings. It predicts the ‘formation number’ L/D for ‘optimal’ vortex rings.
