Experimental Studies on Surface Vortex Mitigation Using the Floating Anti-Vortex Device in Sump Pumps
The maintenance of the performance of sump pumps is important to mitigate flood damage in urban areas and lowlands. However, the air-entraining vortex in the sump leads to undesirable performance degradation. Thus, in this study, the newly designed floating anti-vortex device (F-AVD) was employed in...
