Abstract: Cavitation tunnel measurements have shown tip vortex cavitation inception is delayed when polymers are injected from the hydrofoil tip. Experiments with polymers have also shown that the polymers ...

Abstract: The classical criterion for cavitation of bubbles is based on the assumption that the bubbles are subjected to a quasi-steady pressure change and that the non condensible gas within the cavity ...

Abstract: Cavitation inception and development on a two-dimensional foil with an Eppler E817 cross section issued from an inverse calculus have been experimentally investigated. The foil is theoretically ...
