a giant smoke ring machine. A vortex in aerodynamics is a mass of air that spins around itself on a circular axis while moving forward. It is created here by forcing air through a circular opening. The vortex generator has a movable back wall to act as a plunger to push the air out. You can feel the vortex hit you like an air ball even if it's fired from across the room. If done properly, a vortex of this size can even blow out a candle from across the room!
