Linearized Theory of a Partially Cavitating Plano-Convex Hydrofoil Including the Effects
نویسنده
چکیده
The linearized treatment of the flow over a partially cavitating single hydrofoil having a flat pressure surface and a circular-arc suction side is presented. The flow is treated as a two-dimensional, steady, inviscid flow. Further assumptions made are those of incompressibility and irrotationality. The results obtained are compared with experiment and generally good correlation is found for the ranges of validity of the linearization.

Calculation of Three-dimensional Unsteady Sheet Cavitation by a Simple Suraface Panel Method “sqcm”
This paper presents a calculation method for the 3-D unsteady cavitating hydrofoil problem. The method is based on a simple surface panel method “SQCM” which satisfies easily the Kutta condition even in the unsteady problem. This method is applied to the Wagner problem, heaving hydrofoil and the hydrofoil in sinusoidal gust. We show some calculated results for partially cavitating and supercavi...
متن کاملRe-entrant Jet Modelling for Partially Cavitating Two-dimensional Hydrofoils
The computational analysis of partial sheet hydrofoil cavitation in two dimensions is performed. Particular attention is given to the method of simulating the flow at the end of the cavity. A fixed-length partially cavitating panel method is used to predict the height of the re-entrant jet, using the values of the cavitation number and the drag coefficient. The jet surface is subsequently const...

The prediction accuracies of partially-averaged Navier-Stokes model and improved shear stress transport k-ω turbulence model for simulating the unsteady cavitating flow around the hydrofoil were discussed in this paper. Numerical results show that the two turbulence models can effectively reproduce the cavitation evolution process. The numerical prediction for the cycle time of cavitation incep...

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...
