Numerical analysis on the cavitation characteristics of a pump with an inducer in non-uniform inflow

TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the mechanism of the cavitation characteristics influenced by the non-uniform inflow and found that the nonuniformity induced by the annulus inlet casing mainly influences the development of the secondary flow close to the hub, and the negative induced streamwise vorticity would gradually decay along the radial direction.
