A model for simulating the disturbed magnetic field and disturbed velocity of flux transfer events (FTEs) was developed in the framework of the vortex-induced reconnection theory and was used to calculate the topology and signatures of FTEs. It is proposed that the FTE tube is a magnetic fluid vortex tube which consists of three parts, magnetopause, magnetosheath, and magnetosphere, each with a center located in the respective region. The magnetic field and flow field structure of these three parts are different. The various forms of FTEs signatures observed by spacecraft depend on which part of the FTE tube the spacecraft passes through, the position of the spacecraft relative to the passing FTE tube, and the motional direction of the FTE.
