Vortex Power

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! One way a vortex ring may be formed is by pushing a spherical mass of fast moving fluid (A) into a mass of stationary fluid (B). A and B may chemically be the same fluid. As B hits the ball of A it pushes the outer layers of A with it. The inner layers are less affected. The main mass of A forms a 'shadow' of lower pressure behind it, and the layer peeled off by B begins to curve round back into the main mass of A. This inward curving flow initiates the vortex, and splits it into a doughnut shape. Now B flows past both the inner and outer circumferences of the doughnut. The greater outer perimeter causes a net rolling the doughnut of A.
