New analysis regarding the structure of center vortices is presented: Using data from gluonic SU(2) lattice simulation with Wilson action, a correlation of fluctuations in color space to the curvature of vortex fluxes was found. Finite size effects of the S2-homogeneity hint at color homogeneous regions on the vortex surface.

In this review, we discuss the present status of the description of confining flux tubes in SU(N) pure Yang–Mills theory in terms of ensembles of percolating center vortices. This is based on three main pillars: modeling in the continuum the ensemble components detected in the lattice, the derivation of effective field representations, and contrasting the associated properties with Monte Carlo lattice results. The integration of the present knowledge about these points is essential to get closer to a unified physical picture for confinement. Here, we shall emphasize the last advances, which point to the importance of including the non-oriented center-vortex component and non-Abelian degrees of freedom when modeling the center-vortex ensemble measure. These inputs are responsible for the emergence of topological solitons and the possibility of accommodating the asymptotic scaling properties of the confining string tension.

The center vortex model of quantum-chromodynamics can explain confinement and chiral symmetry breaking. We present a possible resolution for problems of the vortex detection in smooth configurations and discuss improvements for the detection of center vortices.

A new model of an axially-symmetric stationary concentrated vortex for an inviscid incompressible flow is presented as an exact solution of the Euler equations. In this new model, the vortex is exponentially localised, not only in the radial direction, but also in height. This new model of stationary concentrated vortex arises when the radial flow, which concentrates vorticity in a narrow column around the axis of symmetry, is balanced by vortex advection along the symmetry axis. Unlike previous models, vortex velocity, vorticity and pressure are characterised not only by a characteristic vortex radius, but also by a characteristic vortex height. The vortex structure in the radial direction has two distinct regions defined by the internal and external parts: in the inner part the vortex flow is directed upward, and in the outer part it is downward. The vortex structure in the vertical direction can be divided into the bottom and top regions. At the bottom of the vortex the flow is centripetal and at the top it is centrifugal. Furthermore, at the top of the vortex the previously ascending fluid starts to descend. It is shown that this new model of a vortex is in good agreement with the results of field observations of dust vortices in the Earth’s atmosphere.

In order to study the variation law of the flow field and pressure fluctuation in the hump section of the siphon outlet conduit, the flow field characteristics and frequency spectrum characteristics of the flow field were analyzed by combining a physical model test and numerical simulation under the conditions of the interaction between the axial flow pump and siphon outlet conduit, and the influence of the residual circulation at the outlet of the guide vane on the siphon outlet flow was investigated. Based on the influence of the flow field and hydraulic loss in the conduit, the equivalent surface method based on the Q criterion was used to analyze the vortex structure in the siphon outlet conduit and to analyze the internal vortex state. The results showed that with the increase of the flow rate, the intensity of the vortices in the cross-section of the hump section of the siphon outlet conduit decreased gradually, the average velocity circulation decreased gradually and the axial velocity distribution uniformity increased and tended to be stable; water flow stratification existed under three characteristic conditions with no circulation, and the hydraulic loss was greater with the circulation flow while it had a circulation under the small flow condition. Under the low flow rate conditions, the hydraulic loss was 6.6 times higher under the condition of circulation than without. Under a high flow condition, it was 1.3 times. Under the condition of a small flow rate, the vortex structure was distributed centrally at the inlet of the flow conduit, and under the other two characteristic conditions, the vortex structure mostly appeared as a strip; the pressure fluctuation in the hump section had obvious periodicity, and with the increase of the flow rate, the maximum pressure fluctuation amplitude in the hump section decreased gradually; with the decrease of the rotational speed, the pressure amplitude at the same measuring point in the hump section decreased gradually and at the optimum condition. Under the following conditions, the mean value of the pressure amplitude at the top of the hump section was reduced by 69.63%, and the mean value of the pressure amplitude at the bottom of the hump section was reduced by 63.5%. Under all the calculation conditions, the main frequency of pulsation at each measuring point of the hump section was twice the frequency of the rotation.
