Numerical Investigation for Steady and Unsteady Cavitating Flows

A Numerical Investigation of Unsteady Bubbly Cavitating Nozzle Flows

The effects of unsteady bubble dynamics on cavitating flow through a converging-diverging nozzle are investigated numerically. A continuum model that couples the Rayleigh–Plesset equation with the continuity and momentum equations is used to formulate unsteady, quasi-one-dimensional partial differential equations. Flow regimes studied include those where steady-state solutions exist, and those ...

Visualization of Numerical Unsteady Fluid Flows

Instantaneous streamlines are commonly used to visualize particle paths in steady flows. It is shown, however, that streaklines are often more appropriate for unsteady flows. The typical size of unsteady flow simulations makes interactive visualization difficult if not impossible. Two common approaches for visualizing unsteady flows are described. The advantages and disadvantages of each are di...

GPUFLIC: Interactive and Accurate Dense Visualization of Unsteady Flows

The paper presents an efficient and accurate implementation of Unsteady Flow LIC (UFLIC) on the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). We obtain the same, high quality texture representation of unsteady two-dimensional flows as the original, time-consuming method but leverage the features of today’s commodity hardware to achieve interactive frame rates. Despite a remarkable number of recent contributi...

Numerical and experimental research on unsteady cavitating flow around NACA 2412 hydrofoil

This work deals with the numerical and experimental investigation of unsteady cavitating flow around a prismatic NACA 2412 hydrofoil. The main attention is focussed on the dependence of cavitation dynamics on the cavitation number at high incidence angles. The experimental research is carried out in the cavitation water tunnel the rectangular test section of which has inner dimensions 150×150×5...
