摘要
In this paper, a modified theory based on earlier work on stratified entrainment is proposed to explain the persistence of trailing vortices in the far field. These vortices grow at a laminar rate even though the Reynolds number is high and in the turbulent regime. (C) 2002 American Institute of Physics.
