Connection between inlet velocity field and diffuser flow instability
Simulations of the flow in a straight diffuser were carried out for different inlet velocity profiles equivalent to the real turbine operating points. Frequencies and magnitudes of pressure pulsations of the rotating vortex rope were recorded. Two types of vortices were detected. The first one is a...
