The study investigates the formation of sink vortices in jet engine test cells, highlighting how these vortices can lead to foreign object damage and compressor issues during high power operations. It identifies three distinct flow regimes based on the ratio of suction inlet velocity to upstream average velocity, emphasizing the importance of suction inlet diameter and upstream velocity gradient in vortex formation. The findings suggest that to maintain safety against vortex formation, test cells must be de
