Concentration distribution, velocity field, probability distribution of bubble dimension and absolute dimension of bubble are studied by using needletype air concentration probes both in model and prototype. It is found that the capability of air entrainment forming small bubble in prototype is higher than in model due to higher Weber number. Thus, the process of bubble buoying up is slower in prototype. The probability of small bubble and concentration of air entrainment near the channel bed is higher in prototype. The bubbles with diameters below the 02mm or 05mm play important role in mitigating the cavitation erosion. Accordingly, it is reasonable to adopt the concentration formed by small bubble as the criterion for appraising the air entrainment effect on mitigating cavitation damage.
