If conditions are just right, the updraft may begin to rotate. As the air rapidly rises, the column of hot air is stretched vertically, thereby moving mass closer to the axis of rotation, which causes intensification of the spinning effect by <a href="/wiki/Conservation_of_angular_momentum" class="mw-redirect" title="Conservation of angular momentum">conservation of angular momentum</a>. The <a href="/wiki/Secondary_flow#Tornadoes_and_dust_devils" title="Secondary flow">secondary flow</a> in the dust devil causes other hot air to speed horizontally inward to the bottom of the newly forming vortex. As more hot air rushes in toward the developing vortex to replace the air that is rising, the spinning effect becomes further intensified and self-sustaining.<sup id="cite_ref-NWS_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NWS-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> A dust devil, fully formed, is a funnel-like chimney through which hot air moves, both upwards and in a circle. As the hot air rises, it cools, loses its buoyancy and eventually ceases to rise. As it rises, it displaces air which descends outside the core of the vortex. This cool air returning acts as a balance against the spinning hot-air outer wall and keeps the system stable.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The spinning effect, along with surface <a href="/wiki/Friction" title="Friction">friction</a>, usually will produce a forward momentum.

Once it occurs, the effect is dramatic, and the dust devil dissipates in seconds.

A fire whirl is a vortex-shaped formation of burning gases being released from the combustible material. The genesis of the vortex is probably similar to a dust devil's. As distinct from the dust devil, it is improbable that the height reached by the fire gas vortex is greater than the visible height of the vertical flames because of turbulence in the surrounding gases that inhibit creation of a stable boundary layer between the rotating/rising gases relative to the surrounding gases.<sup id="cite_ref-32" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-32"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>32<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Hay_devils">Hay devils</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Dust_devil&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Hay devils"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>A "hay devil" is a gentle whirlwind that forms in the warm air above fields of freshly-cut <a href="/wiki/Hay" title="Hay">hay</a>.
