Numerical study of instability mechanism in the air-core vortex formation process

Air-core vortices are a ubiquitous phenomenon in the intakes of hydropower stations. Due to the transient and instability of two-phase vorticial flow, the prediction of air-core vortex formation is challenging, and understanding of the instability mechanism remains elusive. In this study, the large...
