Hydraulic performance of bottom intake velocity caps using PIV and OpenFOAM methods

Abstract The objective of this investigation is to obtain a more profound understanding of the effective parameters of the velocity caps for bottom intake systems, utilizing particle image velocimetry (PIV) and OpenFOAM. Observations indicate a higher probability of surface vortex formation in squar...
