What is a Vortex Tube?
A Vortex Tube is a device with no moving parts that will
convert an
ordinary stream of compressed air into two streams-one hot and one
cold. A Vortex Tube can produce cold air down to -50 degrees F. and hot
air up to 260 degrees F.
How Do Vortex Tubes Work?
Compressed air is injected circumferentially into the tube at
sonic speed and creates a cyclone (Vortex) spinning at a million
revolutions per minute. Part of the air is forced to spin inward to the
center hole and travels up the long tube where a valve turns the
spinning column (Vortex) of air inside itself. The inside column of air
gives up its heat to the outside column. The cold air is directed out
the cold end of the Vortex Tube and the hot air is exhausted out of the
other end of the Vortex Tube. The temperature and air flow is totally
controllable by adjusting the knob on the hot end of the Vortex Tube
