Channel vortex

Channel vortices result from the superposition of a uniform flow through a section and a circulatory flow. They can develop both in axial flow impellers and radial impellers.

On radial propellers, channel vortices are intensified by centrifugal and Coriolis forces, resulting in differential pressures on the vane sides (see also Fluid mechanics).
