Numerical Insight into the Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability Appearance in Cavitating Flow

Recently the development of Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in cavitating flow in Venturi microchannels was discovered. Its importance is not negligible, as it destabilizes the shear layer and promotes instabilities and turbulent eddies formation in the vapor region, having low density and momentum. In...
