ABSTRACT

Vortices are the major component of turbulent flow; the phenomenon is ubiquitous. The quest to study the phenomenon however is being limited by the lack of laboratory equipment to enhance the study. Vortex apparatus enables students and researchers to produce both free and forced vortices and measure the vortex surface profile. Studying natural phenomena such as hurricanes, tornadoes, and whirlpools (free vortices) requires a full understanding of vortex behaviour. The vortex apparatus when manufactured locally will ensure that it is readily available in a most Nigerian university, hence promoting the knowledge and application of vortex and vortex shedding. The apparatus consists of the Hydraulic bench, cylinder vessels, valves, pipes, push-in orifice, impeller, and electric pump. While the material used was water source able from around the environment.
