Abstract

Cavitating turbulent flow around hydrofoils was simulated using the Partially-Averaged Navier–Stokes (PANS) method and a mass transfer cavitation model with the maximum density ratio (ρl/ρv,clip) effect between the liquid and the vapor. The predicted cavity length and thickness of stable cavities as...
