Abstract
1. A pressure dangerous with respect to cavitation is observed in those places where the vortex core closely approaches the conduit wall (there are places where with formal conversion to the prototype vacuums ≥m H2O are observed, actually the absolute values will be close to the vaporization pressure). 2. Delivery of air to ducts for the given spillway design reduces but does not remove the dangerous vacuum on the conduit walls. 3. Large vacuums are recorded both over the length of the outlet conduit and in the dissipation chamber. 4. The most effective (of those investigated) means of eliminating the vacuum on the conduit wall and in the dissipation structure are the installation of longitudinal ribs and transverse diaphragms in the outlet tunnel and delivery of air to the end of the swirler and dissipation chamber.
