Abstract

Moore's (1978) equation for following the evolution of a thin layer of uniform vorticity in two dimensions is extended to the case of a non-uniform, instantaneously known, vorticity distribution, using the method of matched asymptotic expansions. In general, the vorticity distribution satisfies a boundary-layer equation. This has a similarity solution in the case of a vortex layer of small thickness in a viscous fluid. Using this solution, an equation of motion of a diffusing vortex sheet is obtained. The equation retains the simplicity of Birkhoff's integro-differential equation for a vortex sheet, while incorporating the effect of viscous diffusion approximately. The equation is used to study the growth of long waves on a Rayleigh layer.
