This paper attempts to study the rotation and advance characteristics of tornadoes by experiments and theoretical analysis. A cyclone generator that simulates the characteristics of tornado is completed, and put to experiments under different wind fields in the wind tunnel laboratory. The rotation pattern and advance pattern are analyzed from both the Bernoulli Principle and precession principle. Finally, this paper makes a summary of the research done so far and puts forward the prospect of the next experiment.
