The phenomenon of reversing axial flow in swirling incompressible flow through a tube has been investigated experimentally. The study was carried out in a 2 in. I.D. test section of plexiglass tubing 10 ft. long. The swirl was introduced by injection of the total fluid stream through two symmetric tangential inlets perpendicular to the tube. Measurements have been made with specially constructed stagnation and static pressure probes.Velocity and pressure profiles obtained for tests conducted at four Reynold's Numbers in one fixed geometrical configuration are presented and discussed in general terms. Swirl decay rate is characterized in a plot of weighted tangential velocity/inlet velocity ratio versus distance along the test section from the inlets. A model presented by a previous investigator to explain the flow reversal phenomenon is discussed in the light of present work. Finally the data is used in an order of magnitude analysis to reduce the turbulent Navier-Stokes equation describing the flow to simpler (though still indeterminate) form.
