Rigid vorticity transport equation and its application to vortical structure evolution analysis in hydro-energy machinery

Vortex is the dominant flow structure in hydro-energy machinery, and its swirling features are mainly determined by the rigid rotation part of vorticity. In this study, the rigid vorticity transport equation is proposed based on the vorticity decomposition. The vortex spatial evolution is described...
