First vortex experiments of 2010. The little tornado got up to 1.5 meter high this time. The improved smoke table made the vortex more clear to see. The previous experiments showed that everything heavier than air gets thrown out of a vortex, and this fire vortex shows that fire -being lighter than air, wants to go to the center of a vortex. The fans on the sides proved to be essential for a vortex this tall. The stability of our vortices, we're going to improve that next time.
