Abstract
Investigation results on unsteady vortex breakdown obtained simultaneously using two diagnostics methods: a) determination of a velocity field by particle tracks (particle image velocimetry – PIV), b) determination of velocity field by Laser Doppler Anemometry (LDA), are presented. The experiments data are in some regimes supplemented by the 3D computations of the incompressible Navier – Stokes equations in cylindrical coordinates. Perfect agreements between calculation and experiment reveal efficiency of both suggested diagnostics method for pulsating vortex breakdown and numerical method for solution to 3D un-steady Navier – Stokes equations.
