Abstract: The influence of the boundary layer and of the nuclei content of the fluid on cavitation inception is investigated. Two models of ship propellers, displaying sheet cavitation and bubble cavitation ...

Abstract: A potential based panel method is developed to predict the partial cavity flow on two-dimensional hydrofoil sections. The Dirichlet type dynamic boundary condition on the cavity surface and the ...

Abstract: A potential-based lower-order surface panel method is developed to calculate the flow around a three-dimensional hydrofoil with an attached sheet cavity the leading edge. A Dirichlet type dynamic ...
