  1. Title of seminar to go here – sometimes the title will require two lines of text Fluids Seminar (insert appropriate area as needed) Presenter Name [Title here if professional speaker], The University of Texas at Austin (or appropriate univ/comp) Abstract Dynamical characteristics and associated instabilities of tip vortices shed from a 1m diameter, four-bladed rotor in hover are investigated using various aperiodicity correction techniques. Data is acquired by way of stereo PIV and comprises measurements up to 260◦ vortex age with 10◦ offsets. The nominal operating condition of the rotor corresponds to Re = 248,000 and M = 0.23 at the blade tip. With the collective pitch set to 7.2◦ and a rotor solidity of 0.147, blade loading is estimated from blade element momentum theory to be 0.042. The findings reveal a noticeable, anisotropic, aperiodic vortex wandering pattern over all vortex ages measured. The principal axis of wander is found to align itself perpendicular to the slipstream boundary. Likewise, tip vortices trailing from different blades show a wandering motion that is in-phase instantaneously with respect to one another, in every direction and at every wake age in the measurement envelop revealing certain stability characteristics of the rotor wake in the measurement region.
